Well, I feel like in stuck in the movie Groundhog Day. I keep getting
back to where I was, but no better off. I tried Daryl's suggestion and
updated Mesa and Mesa-devel, not change. Then i uninstalled the patterns
KDE Desktop and KDE Base. Told all the dependencies to delete as well,
system then booted into terminal, no X. The re-installed KDE and Xorg.
Now I'm back to desktop, but all is exaclty where I had left it before.
All my programs are still here, tbird etc. and screensaver still won't
work. Glxinfo still retunrs the same error message. Perhaps I should try
uninstalling KDE again, but this time delete /etc/x11?? then reinstall??
