I found the problem with libGL.so.1 and nouveau, "./nvidia-installer --uninstall" didn't put everything back in place.
Of course not, it can not. It replaces some X components, which you have to reinstate by reinstalling some other package I never remember which. xorg, I think. Or perhaps the two you did.
The RPM package does it right, by simply erecting another directory (and if that's just /usr/X11R6/lib and /usr/lib/xorg/**/updates) and placing it higher in the ld.so.conf hierarchy.
Ahhhh!
But upstream nvidia has not understood this and they still mess with your files.
