ATrpms sets up proper linking to the desired nvidia libs unless you

addicts ...)
As far as I can tell there's only one version of this package on my system. My
system is a clean FC4test3 install on which I performed a yum upgrade.
For this case ATrpms' nvidia packages have a tool called
nvidia-graphics-switch which allows you to switch from one driver to
another (with a X restart step in between) called
nvidia-graphics-switch
I did use this.
Call it w/o arguments to see which drivers are installed (and to get
a
usage information) and then call it with the driver you want to
activate as its only argument. You need to do so as root.
=> nvidia-graphics-switch
Usage: /usr/sbin/nvidia-graphics-switch <driver>
where <driver> is one of 7174
So, the problem I had is that X was using libglx.a which was in
/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/extensions/
