Assuming you are using KDM login shell, login with the default session. Hopefully,
that will open up either KDE or Gnome. Next go to the K or foot menu and go to

guess it would have been better to just kill the process. I now remember

closing the Konsole window ended the program, but I guess not. Anyway,
