A very informative article. So I tried it.

Step one worked just fine with the m-a.

Then installed the nvidia-glx.

Did not work. The libglx.so, etc were not installed anywhere I (or the 
xorg.conf) could find them. I will check again when the locate db is updated. 
Reinstalled the nvidia run meanwhile.

(If I really cannot find them, I guess I file a bug.)
