Have you tried doing "rpm -e --nodeps XFree86-Mesa-libGL-4.3.0-42"? The NVIDIA libGL.so files conflict with the default XFree86 ones, and if that RPM is installed, the default files are found instead of the NVidia provided ones. > Since two people recommended it, I removed this rpm and reinstalled the kernel-module and nvidia-glx rpms. After restarting X, when I tried my OpenGL screensavers (preview mode), instead of a black screen I got "No Preview Available." So I removed Mesa-GLUT as well, reinstalled the Nvidia rpms again, and restarted X, all of which made things even worse because now I get "libglu.so not found." I can of course reinstall Mesa-GLUT, but something else is wrong with my configuration.
