I fiddled around with it by hand after it didn't work. This way, 2D, but not
3D, works. If I let libGL.so.1 point to libGL.so.1.0.5.nvidia as well, kdm
crashes on startup. Can someone check filesizes with this list?

Well, the nv driver of X 4.0.1 may flicker, but not those 8 secs nvidia does.

Hmmm. 3D doesn't work. The Morph3D (GL) one crashes, the other two don't
show anything.
