Larry,
Given that this problem also exists with the 'nv' X driver, and you
cannot start X with the nvidia driver with the glx module, there's
likely something else broken in your environment. As you stated, it
sounds like you're hitting an X bug somewhere.
I'd be happy to help you with the glx module issue, although we should
likely drop the other lists off the distribution for that discussion.
Please generate and provide a bug report after trying to start X with
the glx module. Also, make sure that you've removed/uninstalled any 3rd
party nvidia driver packages from your system.
Thanks,
Lonni

Yes. At least commenting out
# Option "RenderAccel" "true"
in the screen section of xorg.conf and restarting X doesn't fix the
problem. Similar looking backtrace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Just that I am running a full 64bit environment. For what it is
worth, I have to comment out the
Load "glx"
line in the Modules section in order to get X to start at all.
> 3) Does the crash go away if you switch to using the 'nv' X driver?
No, it doesn't. For some reason, the nv driver gives me very bad
rendering at 1600x1200 (the native of my lcd screen), so I haven't
been able to use it. But even giving that a try (at a lower
resolution), I still get the crash. E.g.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I guess this suggests it's really an libx11 bug, not so much an NVIDIA
problem.
