glx not loading [fixed]

I installed the nvidia drivers from livna's rpm, worked fine at first but when i enables translucency it seems to have broke glx. I tried reinstalling drivers, disabled translucency but i get same thing.

SElinux is disabled, load "glx" is in place, folowed all nvidia instructions and read about similar problems but cant find a fix for this.

Installed nvidia-glx-devel and reinstalled drivers but that didnt work. I found something else tho. When you enable translucency it asks you to add a new section to X config file
Quote:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
If you add that glx doeasnt load anymore. Soon as i removed it glx loaded fine

94347 frames in 5.0 seconds = 18869.400 FPS
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
[adrian@empire ~]$
but no more translucency. Anyone else got that?

Who said reading doesnt help? According to nvidia instructions you have to add
Quote:
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
to have both, composite and glx working at same time.
Thanks for your time Clunixchit
