I got a little farther--changed to kdm from gdm and am able to get
limited graphics by using the failsafe login.

Still haven't found the graphics related item that changed.

This is a laptop with results of "lspci | grep -i vga":

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98M [Quadro NVS
160M] (rev a1)

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
