FreeBSD Port: nvidia-driver-169.12

Hi,

I think I've found the problem :)

In "/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/extensions", there was "libglx.so" and "
libglx.so.1". I rename the "libglx.so" in "libglx.so.old" and "libglx.so.1"
in "libglx.so".

I re-run Xorg -config /root/xorg.conf.new and the error is gone !! :)
I'm not able at the time to start X (because I "ssh"ed my computer) but
tonight, I'll try to start X and I think there will be no problem.

My log file now show the good libglx extension :

(II) LoadModule: "glx"
(II) Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libglx.so
(II) Module glx: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
        compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0
        Module class: X.Org Server Extension
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.1
(II) NVIDIA GLX Module  169.12  Thu Feb 14 16:15:29 PST 2008

Regards,
