Well, I just re-emerged the nvidia drivers. They were basically the same |

And luckily that fixed X-windows. I don't know why this broke. My kernel is |
| 21 |
the same. But, I'm just glad this fixed it... Dunno why I didn't consider |
| 22 |
this in the first place. I guess I only think of re-compiling the nVidia |
| 23 |
drivers *IF* I change my kernel. Well, I guess I know this now for the |
| 24 |
future in case. Thanks Bob for pointing out the obvious to me. ;-) |
