Ok I seem to be answering my own question so lets try this again.
Last night I had everthing going good I updated magic last night and it took about an hour and a half after that the firefox would not work again so I tried rebooting several times to no avail.
also I was trying to get the screen to fit my tv I had it on composite then I switched to hdtv 480p all was good. Well I was looking around linux and I think it was the display button I pressed and it asked for the sixe 640x480 ect... well when I changed it to the one below the original it wont let me see the desktop when I reset it it loads to the login screen and lets me login but after I login I get a white screen of death ( I guess) with a black gap on the right. I tried sparkle and I still cant see nothing but white. Can I reset or change the setting and if it is in the cfg what do I put in it.
thanks for any help

You most likely need to reinstall. NEVER change the video settings inside the GUI (I know it sucks doesn't it?)

Most probably. Try running "xbvset" as root.
