If you read the forums alot you'll know that I recently had some trouble with my sound, well that's all fixed but now I have a new problem: I was installing nVidia's reference drivers for Linux and now can't get into X. Funny thing is, right after I installed them I restarted X and it worked fine, rebooted later and now can't get back into X. Anyway, here are the errors I get:

XFree86 Version 4.1.0 / X Window System

If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

Sorry this post takes up so much space/time to read, but just thought I'd show you *everything* in hopes of being more descriptive. Thanks for any help you can provide.
