Hi, all-

The resolution problem with my monitor is fixed (thanks to all for your 
advice on that) but I am having another problem. The screen periodically 
becomes covered with horizontal and vertical lines. If I log out at that 
point, X appears to be hosed- I just get a blank screen. If I reboot, 
everything goes back to normal until the problem repeats. I am running 
Mandake 8.2, and using an Nvidia card. Long before getting my new 
monitor, I had loaded the Nvidia drivers, and reconfigured my 
/etc/X11/XF86config4 file as the Nvidia installation instructions 
specify. Now, My XF86config4 file  is back to showing the driver as "nv" 
instead of "nvidia" and the " load "glx"" line under Modules is missing. 
WTF?

Should I just correct my config file and hope for the best? Am I looking 
at one problem here or two? Most important, if I correct my XF86config4 
file and am unable to restart X, how do I restore the previous settings?
