+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> ML2010.2 and found and installed the nvidia driver. Problem corrected. I ran
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> the nvidia driver in init 3 and then went to kde and everything was restored

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The only reason I mentioned this was because I thought a couple of other

+</I>&gt;<i> Particular model of the card should not matter. What matters is that you renamed

+</I>&gt;<i> the nvidia cards which use the 270series drivers (nvidia-current), which covers
+</I>&gt;<i> basically
+</I>&gt;<i> anything from Geforce 6100 up to Geforce GT590X.
+</I>
+My thought is that the card is not covered as it happened in ML2010.2
+and Mageia. I downloaded the nvidia x86-285.05.09.run. I tend to rename
+.kde when I have problems so I am not sure when I did it here.
