Is the Load "glx" line in your /etc/X11/XF86Config file commented out? If it is uncomment it.

look in your /lib/modules and /etc for anyhting that has glx in it (also check /lib), if not then just go dl the source and start reading onhow to compile it (it has a nasty config method but a ncie compile)

.........In your xf86config file, include this in: Section "Device" right under "Driver"
Code:
Option "IgnoreEDID" "1"
