Hey Rob, Look under the NVIDIA_GLX file, your have to change two lines in XF86config-4. There is installation instructions under the README file. I think you have to add under the video section :
Load GLX And under the driver section I think you replace Driver nv with Driver nvidia (or it could be the other way) I wrote this off the top of my head, drop me an e-mail and I will forward you that readme file.
