Having been unsuccessful with my ATI Radeon card, I treated myself to an nVidia 7600 graphics card. I've added the download.nvidia repository and installed the drivers, but running glxgears gives the following

I'm sure it should do better than that, and I'm not sure what to do about that missing extension :(
Any suggestions, please?
Did you run nvidia-xconfig?
OK. Tried that, but glxgears still gives same output.
BTW, should I remove the ATI drivers, if so, how?
If you installed an ati driver rpm, remove the rpm. OK
