Now what:

I assume this ain't good right.  O_O  OK, I logged out, stopped the GUI,
rmmoded nvidia and reemerged all the nvidia stuff.  Reloaded nvidia and
ran the command.  Now this is what I get:

So that works and then I get this:

That looks good to, still no worky and my screens are really slow. 
Sometimes even the mouse is slow.  I also noticed that if I go to
configure desktop and try to play with the screen saver settings, it
hogs up a LOT of CPU time.  Almost all of it yet it does not work at all.

Are you out of ideas yet?  I'm not sure what to do.  The emerge -e world
is still going though.  309 of 866 and counting.  kdelibs went by a bit
ago.  It's on swig right now.  I dunno what it is.

Any clue?  Am I doing something wrong?  Is this new xorg that bad? 
Should I unmask the newer xorg?  I read the nvidia drivers are not ready
yet.

Thanks
