You might find in your Xorg.0.log that it complains it couldn't load GLX
I had this too, I just had to make sure these lines were in my xorg.conf
Section "Files"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/nvidia/xorg"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
EndSection
you might find these lines in it, and for some reason it loads the GLX
driver....
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
