Hi all,
after doing an online update, a software package called abaqus is unable to display any graphics because the glx module is missing. I found out the update included the latest NVIDIA driverupdate , which was not my intention. I've been able to restore the system back to mesasoft and included "Load glx" in the XFree86 file, but in XFree86.0.log I saw that X wasn't able to find the glx module. I'm using XFree86 version 4.1.0 and read that glx is included from XFree86 version 4, but I'm unable to find this module. Can anyone tell me how to reinstall the glx mod?
You probably have two glx in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions. libglx.a and libglx.so. The .so takes precedence. If you remove NVIDIA's .so from there, XFree86's .a will get used.

THe two libs you 're mentioning aren't there, the only glx lib there is libglx.a.xf86_glx.
I've not see such a library before. Maybe it's some wrapper that your Linux distribution setup. When I install XFree86, I get a libglx.a. Assuming libglx.a.xf86_glx is actually libglx.a you could try renaming it or having a libglx.a symlink pointing to that library.
Most likely a SuSE installation. Use 'switch2xf86_glx' to create the required symlinks (GLX module *and* GL library) if you want XFree86/ GLX. Otherwise use 'switch2mesasoft' to use Mesa. 3Ddiag might also help.
