Hi Dale, Somne shots into the dark: I am running a non-kde and non-gnome Gentoo here (Openbox is my friend) and after upgrading X nothing works. I rtecompiled openbox, lxpanel and the X11-drivers like xf86-input-keyboard, xf86-input-mouse. nvidia-drivers and everything was ok. Try to recompile the x11-drivers and the kde equivalent of the window manager (I dont know much about kde/gnome...sorry ;) ) and may be X11 will be you friend again... HTH! Keep hacking! and have a nice weekend! mcc -- Please don't send me any Word- or Powerpoint-Attachments unless it's absolutely neccessary. - Send simply Text.
