Hello everyone. I'm having a few issues with installing this system
that I hope some might help resolve.

1. I have an Nvidia GeForce 8400M graphics driver. I downloaded and
ran the driver setup program off the nvidia website and I'm pleased to
say it's working fine. The problem I'm having is that when I "end
session" from KDE, it doesn't fall back into the command prompt;
instead it hangs in X. As a result I can't halt or reboot. Does
anybody know why this is happening?

2. Sound is working when I plug in the speakers, but the built in
speakers don't work. (Also, when I press the volume button nothing
happens.) With Ubuntu, the solution was simply to add the line
"options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 model=3stack" to /etc/modprobe.d/
alsa-base, but this file doesn't exist in Slackware. I figure the
solution is similar, but I don't know what file to edit.

3. Fonts from non-KDE programs such as Open Office or Firefox or Gaim
are pretty huge and ugly-looking. Does anybody know how to adjust
these fonts?

If it's relevant, here's the output of lspci:
