Nvida loads but tuxrace is slow! (nvidia logo displayed at boottime)

I removed all the # in XF86Config-4 in front of DRI GLCore and there is 1 line that refers to GLX (see below)

Section "Module"
       Load  "ddc"  # ddc probing of monitor
Load  "GLcore"
Load  "dbe"
Load  "dri"
Load  "extmod"
Load  "glx"

Is there something that i am forgetting?

edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file
Rem out the DRI and GLCore lines

I think you misunderstood....you should comment out those lines rather than remove the comment mark.
I'm not saying this is the trouble, but it could be.

What does comment out mean then?
It means to ADD the hash mark (#) to the beginning of the line, turning it into a comment rather than a command.  A comment is something the interpreter ignores when a script or program is run...in this case it's anything following a hash mark.  It's basically the same as removing the line entirely, only it's still there to be put back into action whenever you want.
did you get confused by what this meant? i know i did.

as the lines are allready "rem'ed out" i assumed i had to remove the "#",

even when i do this, tuxracer runs stupidly slow, 1 frame every 4 seconds.
