+You can "fix" a KDE configuration problem by removing (or renaming if there 
+are some important things to get back) the .kde(4) directory.
+A newbie can do that, if he still has access to a file manager.
+
+Also, if he still has access to a web browser, he can go to a forum and ask 
+for help.
+
+If he don't know how to fix, he still has a working (although minimal) 
+environment from where he can search for help.
+That's way better that re-installing.
