Actually never tried floating before so I gave it a shot. First with a 
console and starting glxgears from there, but it still produces "GLX" 
missing on display ..."

Then I tried 'glxgears' as the command to run directly in a floating 
window but connection fails with:

I'm sure it's a local problem here with GLX, but I won't dig further 
into it, since it's not something I need.


I did try one thing, though, since 'apt-get install nvidia stuff...' had 
apparently moved libglx.a and libGLcore.a (from package 
xserver-xfree86) to another location.

So I copied back those two files to the proper location and listed them 
explicitly with the whole path in XF86Config-4:

Section "Module"
        #Load   "GLcore"
        Load    "bitmap"
        Load    "dbe"
        Load    "ddc"
        #Load   "dri"
        Load    "extmod"
        Load    "freetype"
        #Load   "glx"
        Load    "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a"
        Load    "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a"
        Load    "int10"
        Load    "record"
        Load    "speedo"
        Load    "type1"
        Load    "vbe"
EndSection

Still a no-go but as I said, I don't really need it. If I suddenly need 
it at some point in the future, I'll look at it again.


Btw, thanks for FreeNX (and thanks to !M for the NX technology in 
general). I use it every day and it is absolutely amazing.

Best regards,
