Here is the info: root@fireball / # equery list *xorg* *nvidia* * Searching for *xorg* ... [IP-] [ ] x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.9:0 [IP-] [ ] x11-base/xorg-server-1.9.5:0 * Searching for *nvidia* ...

I opened Firefox, it opened it's home page and about 2 or 3 seconds later, poof, the smoke got out. So, after all this, Firefox still locks it up tight. I didn't touch the window, mouse or keyboard. After I clicked to open Firefox, I let it do its thing until the lights on the keyboard starting to blink. Firefox I tested was the stable version in the tree. Can I shoot it now ?? Dale :-) :-)
