How did you install linux_dri on amd64?  Last time I tried, it reported
back that it was unsupported on amd64.  

As for the i386 machine...  If you installed linux_dri after installing
the nvidia drivers, you overwrote the libGL and libGLcore files from
the nvidia drivers, so it's not surprising direct rendering doesn't
work there.
