Referring to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=92530 Basically the idea was to have nvidia-utils and libgl packages which do not conflict (and don't contain the libgl.so, and, I suppose, the libglx.so symlinks). The user would then have to change symlinks manually (see [1]) to use either nvidia or nouveau after an X restart. Does anyone do it this way? Is there some possible 'gotcha' I'd face trying to do this? My reasons? To see if I can (and also because I finally got round to checking nouveau's latest updates, and it seems my card is just about fully supported except for power saving). [1a] - I'd guess making /usr/lib/libGL.so point at libGL.so.1 and changing /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 to point to either libGL.so.1.2.0 (for current libgl) or libGL.so.310.19 (for current nvidia-beta) is one thing that needs to be done [1b] - The other conflict seems to require /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so to point to either libglx.xorg (for current libgl) or libglx.so.310.19 (for current nvidia-beta) [1c] - Remove nouveau blacklist (or comment it out)
