Ok, major video hdwe breakage since then, the gforce2 cards memory decided to suffer from alzheimers at an early age. This card had been 'cold blooded' for over a year, giving trashed video till it got warmed up. Yesterday a blowtorch wouldn't make it work. I took the mobo out and took it to the tv station where Dave C's somewhat more steady hands could pull and check a few of the caps on the motherboard, but they were all good as gold. Putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 'bingo' I stopped at Circuit City and got a new video card, a Radeon 9200 SE 128 meg card labeled Xtacy or some such. It posted from a cold start, something its not done in 2 years! Although it didn't boot, the cmos battery must be going. Got that in short order, then ran a make menuconfig in /usr/src/linbux-2.6.7-mm6, killed the nvidia stuff and turned on the radeon stuff, rebuilt & rebooted. Had to hack at the kudzu generated XF86Config as it defaulted to a 640x400 screen 16 bit screen best described as Butt Ugly and certainly nearly useless. Got that back up to 1600x1200x24 bits, and was reading the mail (darned near 4 megs of it) about 30 mins ago when it did it again. The leds in the mouse go completely out, and the pointer is frozen in place. There is no guarantee that the usb mouse is even plugged into the same usb port as it was before it was all torn down last night. And no guarantee that it isn't, its on of the two back of the mobo ports on this board In any event, here is the revelant piece of the /var/log/messages file covering the loss of the mouse.
