Sidux uses the nvidia drivers using the nvidia installer vs doing it the Debian way.

Do to this, when there is any updates xorg (and there were some mesa updates yesterday or before) you need to re-install the driver.

I personal do not like the approach they use since it causes problems like this (especially in Sid) but the upside to their approach is you get the new drivers as soon as Nvidia releases them rather than waiting for the Debian maintainer to re-package it.
