[mythtv-users] GLX and NVIDIA. Disable GLX to startx

[Joel Oliveira]

I had the same problem and (after much battling) I found out that it was
trying to load the wrong library file on startup -

in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/ there should be a libglx.so and
libglx.so.1.0.<kernel version> symlinked to the files in the
nvidia-graphics-1.0-<kernel version> directory below.

those are the shared libraries you want run ...

I double checked that and also renamed libglx.a to a gibberish backup file
name so I was sure that it wasn't being run ... and I think that that is
what eventually did the trick.
