    Hello All,

I9;ve recently upgraded xorg-x11 and xorg-server without realizing the binary nvidia drivers do not work. So I downgraded back to 7.2 and 1.3, respectively. Now whenever I run KTorrent it runs for about a minute and then xorg crashes and freezes. Any song I was playing starts to skip like a broken record, the mouse and keyboard become unresponsive, with the exception of the caps lock LED which flashes. Anyway, I believe the problem to be within my 
xorg.conf file. I changed it when upgrading, and again when downgrading. Here is most of it:

I hope someone can tell me if anything looks off. And if not, what the problem may be?

Thanks,

won't use unfree drivers, but something else you didn't mention that you
may wish to investigate... &nbsp;Have you run revdep-rebuild recently?&nbsp; It's
part of gentoolkit I believe.

I have tried running revdep-rebuild and it doesn't find anything it needs to rebuild.&nbsp;
