hmm...
I don't use the nvidia-glx package - I use the nvidia installer from nvidia.com
and my libGL.so* files are:

libGL.so - > libGL.so.1
libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.0.9746
libGL.so.1.0.9746

And everything works fine in my case. And I think it's solved quite well.

I don't understand one thing - if you install the nvidia driver from the
nvidia-glx package, does it result in some kind of 'layer' between the
OpenGL application and the driver itself (thru that
/usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.xlibmesa file)?? Or is it just another symlik?

Leo - are you saying that in your case the OGL driver is accessed by
some mesa libraries, which results in a lack of 3D acceleration?

In my case the 'glxinfo | grep OpenGL && glxinfo | grep direct' command
gives such output:

OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 6600 LE/AGP/SSE2
OpenGL version string: 2.1.0 NVIDIA 97.46
OpenGL extensions:
direct rendering: Yes

What do you get?
