Wolfy,

As a follow up yes moving the /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
file out of the way does resolve the issue, and
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/fglrx/libglx.so is what loaded according
to Xorg log file. It seems if the Xorg libglx.so file is there, it tries to
load it. But given that file is apart of "xorg-x11-server-Xorg" rpm I don't
think that is the best route. Is there anyway to blacklist this libglx.so
automatically when the package is present or is there some other preferred
route?
