Hi,

i ran into the same problem using Hardy Beta and the nvidia-glx-new
drivers (version 169.12+2.6.24.11-12.31). Apparently the path to
"libglx.so" has changed with this new driver. It is now located in
"/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions". This directory is not searched by
displayconfig while collecting available proprietary drivers. Changing
line 2554 in "/usr/share/python-support/guidance-
backends/displayconfigabstraction.py" to

os.path.exists("/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so")):

fixes the problem. Reopening this bug report.

** Changed in: displayconfig-gtk (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => Confirmed
