Direct Rendering Check: Using inxi vs. gksu nvidia-settings? 64bit

Hello all,
First off I just want to comment on what a fine configurable distro this is, and how orderly the #! site is.
I really like it.

Now for my question.  I used sgfxi to install my propriety Nvidia driver.  I first needed to blacklist my Nouveau driver all seems to have gone well.  I also installed inxi and was able to check my graphics card.

Here is what I got.

Resuming in non X mode: glxinfo not found in path
Graphics:  Card nVidia C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430] X.org 1.7.7 Res: 80x25 Gfx Data: N/A out of X

When I check via     gksu nvidia-settings I have a confirmed rendering of "YES"

How do I resume in X mode?  Do I need to apt-get glxinfo  I would like to fix "Res: 80x25 Gfx Data: N/A out of X" if at all possible.

I also would like to apologize if I overlooked the answer in the wiki or forum.

TIA
Dave

Hello folks,
Seems I may have found an answer to this one.  As per this post in puppy:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=53986

As per rokynji "glx renderer seems to be the only thing missing in Puppy to pick up the video card and chip.
everything else gets picked up. "

So I'm thinking this is a non-issue.  Possibly a similar thing in #!

Dang my OCD!! 

Dave
