Hi guys,
This is a late response to follow up. I tried everything posted on this
thread but it seems my problem was something different. I had messed up things
a lot. Had to reinstall nvidia driver first incorrectly then correctly. And
then when I finally got the correct driver, glx didn't load had to fix that
following this link:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=478489
works for RHEL as well.
I have got FG working properly now. No more slow frame rate. Long story short,
apparently it is as simple as installing Mesa using linux-dri-x86-64 to enable
direct rendering. Had quite a few problems in that as well but that is a right
way to go.
Just thought of writing this for future reference.
Thanks.
Ekhlas.

Try commenting out 'Load "dri"' in the module section
of /etc/X11/xorg.conf. The NVIDIA driver should handle that.
FYI this is what I have in that section:
Section "Module"
Load "extmod"
Load "dbe"
Load "xtrap"
Load "glx"
Load "record"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
EndSection
