i'd used the free nv, but it neither supports my resolution nor gl. and even though i could live with the lack of the latter, the res is a must

Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-03 01:20:26 UTC
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "boolean"

    Enables GLX even when the Composite X extension is loaded. ENABLE AT YOUR
    OWN RISK. OpenGL applications will not display correctly in many
    circumstances with this setting enabled.

    This option is intended for use on X.Org X servers older than X11R6.9.0.
    On X11R6.9.0 or newer X servers, NVIDIA's OpenGL implementation interacts
    properly by default with the Composite X extension and this option should
    not be needed. However, on X11R6.9.0 or newer X servers, support for GLX
    with Composite can be disabled by setting this option to False.

    Default: false (GLX is disabled when Composite is enabled on X servers
    older than X11R6.9.0).
