there's also a good tutorial of setting up xorg in the gentoo-wiki.
Finally, I just installed xorg and nvidia on my system. (Note. It still seems to screw up the symlinking, because my PKG_CONFIG_PATH now needs to be manually set to point to /usr/lib64 as well. Something seems to be awry on my system after installing xorg.)
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I commented out DRI, and set the default bitdepth to 24bit because it kept defaulting to 8 bit, and it worked great (getting around 7000 fps on glxgears).

My system is configured for graphical login. So when the login prompt comes
up, I choose a terminal session login. That closes the graphical login and
leaves me at a command prompt login. I login as root and
execute: /usr/bin/X11/Xorg -configure. The screen goes blank for a second,
and then comes back, no indication of an error. A few seconds later the
graphical login is back. I log in, but no xorg.conf to edit. Am I going about
this wrong?
My typo, should be Xorg -config that should generate /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Sry
