Xorg.0.log.old from last graphical.target attempt is at: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/Xorg.0.log.old
If you would append .txt to that, or configure Apache to type it as text/plain, people would be able to open it directly in a browser instead of having to download it first.
I am lost. What to do next?
Does this help?
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection
AFAIK, of those you tried, only KDE4 ever employs compositing.
Tks, but I neglected to answer that I have *no* xorg.conf. Are you suggesting that I generate one and if so, should I use nvidia-xconfig or ??
I wasn't aware that a config file had become unnecessary for X to function properly using the NVidia proprietary driver. As a normal matter of course I put that bit in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-extensions.conf, but sometimes have it in xorg.conf. I find most bling to be highly annoying, and useless overhead.

Guess I should also mention that I had the "composting" disabled in kde,
Are you sure your brain isn't composting from celbratory imbibing? I wasn't aware composting could be done with a puter. :-p
but none of the other window-managers will open in runlevel 5, icewm, openbox(-kde) or twm.
If you mean selecting any as optional session instead of Plasma default, it sounds like KDM is what's broken. Maybe try enabling BS KDE (aka beyond Tumbleweed, to Factory), duping to it, then trying again. Something else to try is find kdmrc and set UseTheme=false. Does it work if you uninstall NVidia and use nouveau? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
