Yes, I have been using the binary (nvidia-drivers) for years. Not had to fall
back to open drivers yet.

Result:
eve ~ # find /usr -name "libdri*"
/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions/libdri.so
/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions/libdri2.so
eve ~ # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(EE) Failed to load module "xtrap" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "dri" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "dri2" (module does not exist, 0)
The files do exist, but are not found as I am using the nvidia-opengl, rather
then the xorg-x11 opengl.
