removing the BusID line worked and the nvidia defination is needed. Xorg now
seems to work. I have xinitrc configured for kde and it starts fine and
displays the nvidia screen and looks ok initially in general with the kde
graphics but at the end it all goes to black. Changing to twm or vtwm works
fine but with a black background only although with twm I have term windows
and other programs that are viewable
Don't know about KDE, but the black background is now a default for
Xorg, so also for twm.
where in kde, nothing is visible. There must be something missing from
my upgrading that would cause the black background but have no idea
where to look.

That looks to me like KDE trying to switch to a particular resolution
and failing. Check the resolution setting in the xorg.conf Screen
section. The easiest is just to set Virtual to the largest resolution
your monitor can handle:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1920 1200
EndSubSection
EndSection
