Jonas,

You are right. I reinstalled my downloaded NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-177.82-pkg2.run 
under runlevel 3 and with KDM not loaded. All problems solved: I also coudl 
not set the KDE desktop screensaver. Came with the same error.

As above file creates a kernel module, what will happen is the update managers 
comes with a new kernel. Do I have to in install the NVIDIA again all the 
times??

Description: NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org 'new' driver
 These XFree86 4.x/X.Org binary drivers provide optimized hardware 
acceleration
 of OpenGL applications via a direct-rendering X Server and supports the  
newer
 GeForce, nForce and Quadro families of NVIDIA chipsets.  AGP, TV-out and
 flat panel displays are also supported.
 .
 If you have a TNT, TNT2, or older GeForce, you may need the nvidia-glx-legacy
 package instead of this one. If you have a GeForce4, you may need the 
nvidia-glx
 package.
