Default 3D Acceleration Lost

i've upgraded from xfree86-4.3.0-i486-6 to xfree86-4.4.0-i486-1 and lost
gfx acceleration, when i try to run anything accelerated, such as
glxgears, X crashes and restarts... can find much in
/var/log/XFree86.0.log or ~/.xsession-errors except...

:: /var/log/XFree86.0.log ::
(II) NVIDIA(0): AGP 8X successfully initialized
(II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1280x1024"
(II) Loading extension NV-GLX
(II) NVIDIA(0): NVIDIA 3D Acceleration Architecture Initialized
(II) NVIDIA(0): Using the NVIDIA 2D acceleration architecture
(==) NVIDIA(0): Backing store disabled
(==) NVIDIA(0): Silken mouse enabled
(**) Option "dpms"
(**) NVIDIA(0): DPMS enabled
(II) Loading extension NV-CONTROL
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load GLX

/etc/X11/XF86Config is the original working one.
Any idea's?
Thanks,

You probably need to rebuild the NVidia driver.
