I have been following the discussions on the subject. I do know that
nvidia recommends commenting out dri in the modules section ie:
Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
Load "extmod"
Load "fbdevhw"
Load "glx"
Load "record"
Load "freetype"
Load "type1"
# Load "dri"
EndSection
You might want to try that to see if the nvidia driver works.
