Hey guys as the topic name says i cannot start VLC back after i changed skin
heres what i did:
downloaded the skin from vlc main site on my desktop, then i run alt+f2, runed vlc wich was workin perfectly fine, i went into preferences at skins and browse my way to desktop where that skin was, after that i closed vlc and when i try start it again it does not work, it closes by itself.

after that i deleted the skin from my desktop, doesnt work
then i run (yum erase vlc) and (yum install vlc) says install complete but same story cannot start it.

Probably VLC's preferences weren't removed by yum. Either delete VLC's preferences file or run vlc -I qt4, which will start VLC in its default interface. But usually when you have deleted the skin VLC should by itself change to the default skin which is shipped with it, so the behavior of your VLC seems unusual. Which version of VLC do you have?
