Thats what's killing me. I made that thing successfully in about a
minute with FC5 kernel 2187 and FC5 kernel 2200 killed it. So, I went
and dnloaded kernel 2187. Then the video blew up. xorg couldn't do a
generic install of my nVidia. So, from command line I yum re-installed
the nvidia rpms which promptly re-installed the 2200 kernel again.
<scheeesh> It hurts my widdle head. I'm pretty positive it blew up at
kernel 2200. It was really sweet to have the webcam work. It felt
like... 
			VICTORY!
