Just upgraded my motherboard / CPU (old one fried out) ... picked up an ASUS P5Q with a Quad Core Intel CPU ... everything boots / runs fine, until I try and start up X ... If I use the 'nv' driver in my X conig file, and the twm window manager, everything starts up fine, I can load Firefox, etc, etc ... As soon as I switch from nv -> nvidia and start, the screen goes blank and the machine reboots ... If I switch from nvidia -> nv and use '/usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde', the screen goes blank, and the machine reboots ... I just installed icewm, and using that, everything loads up fine too ... So, I figure there is something that I'm either missing in my install, or that I've configured wrong that kde is trying to use, but I'm at a lose as to what ... Can anyone help?
