Quirky fixes

There were some absolute symlinks that cause trouble when building the live-CD in Woof, for example /usr/lib/xorg is a symlink to /usr/X11R7/lib/xorg. I have changed these to relative, in the 'zzt2_fixup_hack' PET package.

I have added a menu entry (in Setup menu) for the 'nvidia-settings' GUI setup tool, in my full Nvidia PET package.
