You don't need much time. The default shortcut to disable compositing in kde is shift+alt+f12 You can try the vesa driver, or any alternative that will work with your card, as well. I also had the usb issue that others said above, with previous kernel versions. I haven't seen it lately though, with 2.6.39.x. -- Jesús Guerrero Botella
