I don't think this had anything to do with my problem but I loaded

working just fine. Now I can't get it to start even with the nv
driver.

Any idea where I should start?

Thanks,
There are two options. Look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Or what might be better, change to init level 3 and start X with startx
Then check the error messages.
