Hi,

I can see that you have a Logitech mouse, so you might have a look at
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=262317#c19 and apply the
patch if necessary.

About the NVidia Driver please try to get the latest, because the old
ones will not install properly, because some version number in the Xorg
server was changed from 7.x to its internal version numbering. So older
NVidia driver installer think that they have found an old XFree version
and install in a wrong directory tree.

You might also try to do a
sax2 -i -m 0=nvidia
after you reinstalled the Nvidia driver. 0 is a NUMBER and not the
capital version of the letter 'o'.
Hope this helps a little,
kind regards,

Tom

In Beta1 I tried the 100.14.11, but it would cause KDE to lockup on exit
when using compiz-fusion. Went back to 9639 and compiz-fusion was
working fine then. This was with xorg 7.2 and compiz-fusion 5.2.xx. It
also no longer works. Will try it again.
