It does appear to be loading nvidia but I don't see the splash screen. 
I also notice that it takes longer to log out for some reason.  It logs
in like always, about 10 seconds or so, but when I log out, it takes 45
seconds or so.  Maybe the splash screen is off by default. I dunno.

I'm assuming you are using evdev and hal.  I'm back to the old way. 
It's just easier for me to keep working, if I can get my wheel to work
again.  I have another install that I may play with some but it's not
going to be on my main OS again.  I'm waiting on something else. 
Someone mentioned devicekit is a 'up n comer'.  Sounds good to me.

Saves this for the other install.
