You might find in your Xorg.0.log that it complains it couldn't load GLX I had this too, I just had to make sure these lines were in my xorg.conf Section "Files" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/nvidia/xorg" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" EndSection you might find these lines in it, and for some reason it loads the GLX driver.... ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" Martin
