You shouldn't remove the Mesa stuff from your system. You should also make sure you're using the livna nvidia packages - stay away from the nvidia binary modules, since they will not install properly on a Fedora system. > After this there still seem to be some links left wich where installed by > xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-31 > > /usr/lib64/libGL.so > /usr/lib/libGL.so > > The point where they link to doesn't exist anymore so I linked the first one > the nvidia provided one.

The fact that it's not linked to anything is a bug, IMHO, but this isn't going to get fixed until X is modularized (I've asked). It should be linked to your Mesa libGL (which you should install back). However, that doesn't explain why your system crashes... Do /sbin/ldconfig -p|grep libGL ...
