OK,
"glxinfo | grep direct" shows:
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
So, it's as you said nvidiafb here.
Today I tried to build a nvidia.ko on my own, like the way you described
it earlier this month on this list:
>>Build one. Add a normal 32-bit mirror's deb-src to /etc/apt/sources.list
>>(e.g. "deb-src http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian unstable non-free").

>>Tell X to use nvidia instead of nv ("dpkg-reconfigure

Building the nvidia-kernel went fine.
But I can't build nvidia-glx. If I try the "dpkg-buildpackage" it
shows this errormessages at the end:

What's wrong here? I tried to build the package with gcc 3.4 and 4.0 -
but it had the same problem. Do you have a solution for this?
