Installed the desktop kernel and rebooted but could not get a graphical desktop.
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling dkms-nvidia-current - desktop failure.
Ran drakx11 and specified proprietary driver - that failed to complete - your screen is too small !!
Tried the modesetting driver, rebooted and the nvidia module built and installed.   Desktop running fine so far.  Stress tests and the like later.
