Avery Day! Thank you! These steps: Here are the steps: 1. Purge the nvidia restricted package if installed by doing a "dpkg --purge nvidia-glx-new" 2. Kill the gdm server, "/etc/init.d/gdm stop" 3. Install the driver mentioned above. 4. start gdm server "/etc/init.d/gdm start" When X starts you should now see the nvidia logo with the the words beta in red. If you don't edit you xorg.conf file and replace nv with nvidia and restart X. Helped me to fix the problem. I appreciate our help, hopefully everyone will try these steps to resolve the problem.
