I briefly took this discussion with Michael offlist. Anyway, the system seemed to behave itself better with kde minimal, but still locked up once. I tried xfce again and fought with it to configure the menu like I wanted.

http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/customize-menu in case anyone's interested.

Thanks to this depression the politicians say is we're not in the middle of, I had to move to America's bug factory (Kentucky). Since money is tight I'll have to make do with the card I have now for a bit longer. I'd like to thank all of you who have helped me figure out what the problem is. I'll keep these emails so when I can get another card, I'll have some ideas about where to get one. Try to imagine living in Lukeville and not being able to make a quick trip to Fry's or your neighborhood computer store on a whim.

It's two hours later here so I'm off to bed.

I'll keep this in mind when I get some spare cash. I tried uninstalling
kde and installing xfce. This worked, but I couldn't find an easy way to
edit the menu in xfce. I looked around in synaptic and stumbled onto
kde-minimal. I tried that and so far it's not giving me any trouble.

Thanks for your help and suggestions.
