I think that is normal since the proprietary nvidia driver contains its
own GLX implementation. The installation instructions explicitly state
that you should comment out the normal glx module.
Do you encounter any problems if you start X with the nvidia driver and
the glx module commented out? You can run "glxinfo | grep direct" to
check. If you get "direct rendering: Yes" then you are all set.
