Actually, I realized this was my problem all along. I added a repo to do just that, and in fact, I was running the 195 driver when this started. I eventually solved my problem by disabling the repo and reverting back to the 'standard' 185 driver for this version of Ubuntu. For some reason, the repo with the newer drivers wants to overwrite the file I mentioned, but the driver from the standard repo does not. So while I supposed my fix isn't perfect, it's working, and I'm not going to mess with it any further for now.<br>

You could Update to the 195 drivers... to do this you will need to<br>
update your sources...<br>
<br>
I found the same thing kept trying to uninstall myth.. I updated to<br>
195 on the weekend with no worries except my xorg.conf cost the<br>
disable compisite line meaning I had top and bottom pannels until I<br>
did this.<br>
