Thanks for the suggestion about recompiling the nvidia driver, but I do after each kernel compile and install, so that isn't the answer, though not a bad idea. Recompiles of both the Linux-nvidia-port and the standalone-nvidia driver failed, so I am in the process, now, of backing out of everything that was updated.
Are there any suggestions for better diagnosing of the problem?
