Since you indicate you are enabling Xinerama, there is a good chance the two X driver modules may generate visual lists that are incompatible with each other. Xinerama works best with like cards.
Xorg currently does not implement a per device GLX module; there is only one per X server instance. There is no way to load both the NVIDIA GLX module (for the NVIDIA board) and the VESA GLX module for the Intel onboard.
