I installed the updated kernel-server today. I was unable to get into kde.
The reboot took me to init 3. I tried startx and got errors. I had to remove
the kernel. This might be a good time to see if my graphics card is
supported. If I reinstall the kernel-server it will take me to init 3. Can I
use XFdrake at this point to install the proper nvidia drivers? And then
startx to go into kde?

Probably because you didn't install kernel-servel-devel package which is needed
for dksm to successfully rebuild the nvidia driver for the new kernel. So you
should
install kernel-server-latest and kernel-server-devel-latest to ensure you
always have
the latest server kernel and the corresponding -devel package. Then just run
drakx11 to setup the nvidia, if still needed. IIRC, you need to reboot then.
I reinstalled the kernel-server latest and kernel-server-devel and then
used MCC to install the proprietary driver. It now works.
Thanks, Gary
