1. Nvidia's installer can be run with options to avoid this problem. If you do 
not do it thus, every time you upgrade xorg, you need to check the
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extenstions/libglx.so to make sure it points to nvidia's 
(libglx.so.1.0.####). A pain but not the end of the world.

2. I found I got twice the frame rate with Nvidia's! Why? Should be same or 
similar code.

3. If your sound card is too old to be supported by the latest-and-greatest 
drivers, you MUST use the appropriate Nvidia version installer.
