Cedega on Arch64

I installed arch64 to replace gentoo (amd64) last night and so far things are gone quite smoothly. Today I installed Cedega, on tests it says OpenGL Direct Rendering failed but 3D acceleration passed. I also got some errors to console when running tests:

Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".

I got geforce 6600gt and drivers installed:

$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

For games oldie Jagged Alliance 2 (2D) works but Civ4 (3D) doesn't. I was wondering is this 32bit vs 64bit issue or xorg 1.3.0 issue maybe?

Okay

lib32-nvidia-utils seemed to solve my problem.

Re: Cedega on Arch64

I had that problem last week after the installation of arch and lib32-nvidia-utils solved it too.
But today I had the problem again. In terminal I got the error message:

NVIDIA: Direct rendering failed; attempting indirect rendering.
Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has version 173.14.09,
but this NVIDIA driver component has version 173.14.05.  Please make
sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components
have the same version.

There was an nvidia update the last days, I guess it has something to do with this update. Must there be an update of the lib32 too? Or does anyone have the solution?
