... I'm not a Linux coder and it might be bad style, anyway, it doe's
the job. If I can't use the proprietary with a kernel-rt, but I need §d
for some usage, I add this script:

#! /bin/sh
# /etc/rcS.d/Switch_xorg_conf

rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
case $(uname -r) in
    *rt*)
        cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        ;;
    *)
	cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        ;;
esac
