If I understand right, mesa3d cannot be selected in same time than 
nvidia-driver. Consequently, xorg-xserver will be built with 
"--disable-dri --disable-glx". 
It does not produce error when loading nvidia-driver? In add, I 
suppose it is not possible to use OpenGL application if xserver
is compiled --disable-glx, no?

I am currently trying to compile xorg-xserver with dri/glx but without
using mesa3d (using opengl-registry and nvidia-driver instead).
