Thanks for your question. I have "nvidia" in my XFConfig, but to load the module, I seem to have to put NVdriver in my modules.autoload file. I believe something in the baselayout changed this for me, as I had not needed to do this before. cat /etc/modules.d/nvidia alias char-major-195 NVdriver ### modules-update: start processing /etc/modules.d/nvidia alias char-major-195 NVdriver ### modules-update: end processing /etc/modules.d/nvidia Snipped from modules.conf. I also get the same glxgears performance as before. All I know is I'm using the Nvidia official drivers and not the "nv" open source ones. So I'm cool. Peace!
