I was actually doing the command in a Konsole. It seemed to mess up again later on. It got REALLY slow. I decided to do things differently. I logged out of KDE, went to single user mode, typed in the command to set opengl to nvidia, then went back to default runlevel and logged in. It worked fine and has ever since. I have logged out several times, been experimenting with fluxbox, and it is still fast as it was. So, it may be best to run that when logged out of a GUI at least but I went to single user just to be certain. I would think that stopping xdm would work just as well but one never knows about these things. Maybe that will help. Never hurts to hope. Dale :-) :-)
