Then I would assume that you don't have the nvidia driver working. I
have no idea why nvidia-settings displayed the one you want to use, but
if it is working, glxgears should always run. So my advice is what I
wrote in my first mail in this thread: Run the command
sudo nvidia-xconfig
in a terminal and then reboot. After that the nvidia driver should be
active (check it with glxgears).
