That's to handle the nvidia driver modules
which includes something called glx I think ?
       

That answers it.  the nv driver does not support 3d, so the lib cannot
load. If you want 3d, use the nvidia driver.
     

You mean uninstall the OEM driver and go back to Xfree86 driver that
doesn't have tvout support ?
   

The nv driver is the XFree86 driver, which is the one you are already using.  
The nvidia driver from nVidia should have tvout support and also supports 
glx.
 

Not the way I have it, nv is the native OEM driver with tvout,
and nvidia is the xfree86 non tvout driver. I can assure you the nv
gives tvout support, which is why I have it.
