I haven't had an X/kde problem in years and probably because of that I =20
am stuck.  Problems are learning opportunities;)  To confirm that my =20
las xorg.conf was done with xorgconfig and almost identical to my old =20
XF86config files and all depreciated.

When trying to start my brand new kde it stuck with Akonadi and the =20
las line was that it was preparing to launch =20
/usr/local/kde4/lib/kde4/kio_trash.so and it doesn't move from there.  =20
I have to kill it with ^c.  I have a copy of the last run bye using =20
startx 2>&1 | /tmp/TestLog.log and am attaching the file.

As I mentioned my xorg.conf didn't work so I created a new on with =20
Xorg -configure and then ran the nvidia-config and used the result =20
also attached.

To confuse myself even more I decided to test it with twm and xtwm =20
because I was sure that they would work in the meantime but neither of =20
them even wanted to come up.  They change all my black terminal =20
windows to white and make it impossible to read and it shuts xorg down =20
immediately.  It would seem from the nvidia errors that the problem is =20
with the nvidia driver that I have been using without problems for =20
several months now, so I also tried the vesa driver with similar =20
problems.  I'm also attaching the Xorg.0.log, just in case.

Resuming I don't know if my problems are with kde4, xorg, or the =20
nvidia driver and have no idea where to go from here, so any =20
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
