compiling from source is pretty easy.... dl the tar files... exit x... cd into whichever directory you dled them into. tar -xzf both files. cd into the glx directory, make install. cd into the kernel directory make install. double check your etc/x11/XF86config file to make sure the dri and glcore modules are commented out. add the glx module. change the driver from nv to nvidia. At this point I always have to reboot before restarting x... but then that could be because I am using your hated slackware ;-)
