There's no reason to uninstall first.
Thanks Ron re-installed the Nvidia drivers but mesa still has control of glx and open GL.I have tried using "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" but it reports an error that the X configuration has been changed and it cant proceed automatically.So if some one knows how I can change the links so X looks for the Nvidia libraries instead of the Mesa libraries. Also if anyone has built FGcvs on ubuntu 7.04 or other ubuntu do you use the ubuntu Mesa packages or the Mesa source. Thanks in advance.
