We suggest switching to the nvidia blob. Building with clang is broken due to nouveau code which is still in the dri port. Maybe this should also be removed/disabled. Also, I was still using hald, and xorg was segfaulting with it enabled (when adding some device, x0861 or something). I recompiled without it. All seems well with NVIDIA GPU Quadro FX 3800M (G92GL), using nvidia-driver-285.05.09 despite seeing this in Xorg.0.log: [ 47.183] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the GLX module; please check in your X [ 47.183] (EE) NVIDIA(0): log file that the GLX module has been loaded in your X [ 47.183] (EE) NVIDIA(0): server, and that the module is the NVIDIA GLX module.
