Are you using the NVidia drivers included with X, or the ones from
Nvidia's website? In the latter case, did you follow the instructions
included with the driver about GL support (I don't remember the
details, but IIRC it concerns making sure that you're loading the
library from /usr/lib/X11R6/lib/modules instead of /usr/lib/X11R6/lib)?
