Section "Files"
        ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
        ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions"
        ModulePath   "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"

(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia/libglx.so
(II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
        compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.9755
        Module class: X.Org Server Extension
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.1

I've got working FC4 & FC3 boxes to compare against, so most of the
obvious things I've already done (hopefully :)
