Thanks for the quick response Travis. I first upgraded the kernel, then found that there was not a new nvidia driver to match. Today there was, so I upgraded that. All the while I have been using the new kernel (now with the new nvidia package) which was the state when the error was generated. Xcompmgr works in the meantime. I'll send a screen of the desktop when I attempt to start compiz...the bottom 1/4 of the screen goes blank (and it is an edge, i.e. you cannot drag items into it, but new windows open into it, and you cannot access confirmation buttons, etc.).
