Thanks that worked to get things going and with a little fiddling I
found that using the OpenGL1 ThemePainter would work well. It seems that
Auto was using something else.

I got all my front ends working using Nvidia 340.98 except for an Ion
found end that has a GT218. That one exhibits the same stuttering
problem that using the 304.132 does on the other two. 304.132 doesn't
work at all on the GT218 (no video). I'll continue working on that one
until I find a solution.
