    Hello and MANY thanks,

    I was finally able to get this. The "gedit" program is NOT on this system. I did some looking for "info commands", and found that the editor is called "nano" on this version of kubuntu. I am not sure if this also is true on installations of ubuntu V7.10, but this finally got me started.

     

    THANK you again,

     

    I truly appreciate it....

    Thank you, and Hello Danleff,

    I actually merely downloaded (and after many times remembering that it might be risky, and NOT enabling) the NVidia proprietary driver, I believe from the kubuntu (ubuntu) repository.

    After I forgot my concerns for one short second, and "Enabled" it in the section controlling the non-free drivers, I lost it all when I rebooted.

    I do have a ubuntu bootable disk that I can use to look at the HDD directories, but the system will not let me change anything.

    It appears that, IF I could, - changing the xorg.conf.1 file back to xorg.conf would make this boot as it used to. The system will not allow me to do that, whether I boot to the ubuntu CD, or boot the kubuntu into recovery mode and use the terminal.

    The system has kubuntu V7.10 installed.
