OK, did that, but then I got those scrolling lines back ... up one monitor and down the other. Also, X would still lock up. So I reinstalled the latest drivers from Matrox, which is how I got rid of those lines in the first place, and now they are gone.
As it stands now, a browser will typically lock up a couple of times upon opening, but if I xkill and keep trying, it will work. (However, MSNBC will lock it up about EVERY time.) Also, when the screen saver kicks in, it will usually kill X and any programs I have running as well.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks,
