Hi,

now that I did a ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers, I found out what
the problem was:

In the aforementioned directory, both "nvidia_drv.o" (the one from
current the nvidia-glx package) and "nvidia_drv.so" (the old one, 8774)
existed, and Xorg prefered nvidia_drv.so

I think the drivername should be named "nvidia_drv.so" instead of
"nvidia_drv.o", as every other driver in that directory ends also with
".so", shouldn't it?

greets
johannes
