	Hi Jay, I just got things back up. Harty is still the same. No Internet 
and poor x windows. I decided to get Jaunty fixed. That is a big joke!!! 
I have zero luck fixing x windows problems, none,zip!

	So after trying several things to fix the installed Jaunty which 
included removing the old nvidia drivers, I decided correctly it's 
easier to just re-load Jaunty.

	I did this and the x windows is running fine and I have everything 
running like it should be. Now it is back to getting other things 
working like, the darn bios boot sequence started with the hard drive. I 
fixed that so I could reload Jaunty.
