Yet another nvidia driver installation problem


It seems like everyone is having one of these. I was able to get past the installation and start X, however everytime I run an application (Celestia, Chromium) requiring OpenGL it crashes before starting up. The readme says to double check if I have any conflicting libraries, and there doesn't seem to be any, but I need to make sure as I don't have much of a clue where to look. Is there a short, easy, way that I can check for conflicting libraries, such as a program or a script?

Also the readme says that 'xdpyinfo' should show the "GLX", "NV-GLX" and "NVIDIA-GLX" extensions present. "GLX" and "NV-GLX" appear, but "NVIDIA-GLX" doesn't. What could I do about that? My xorg log seems to show no errors, I can post it here if anyone wants.

Have Nvidia updated their drivers to include Xorg now?

I thought that the Nvidia installer was XFree86 specific.
