Nvidia problem after install and created xorg.conf

Hi!
I have problem with nvidia drivers.
I have installed nvidia-libgl and lib32-nvidia-libgl.
When I try start NVIDIA X Server Settings I have error:

You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.

Ok so I;m goting to console and do

nvidia-xconfig

After that it created /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with:

# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig:  version 355.11  (buildmeister@swio-display-x86-rhel47-07)  Wed Aug 26 17:15:49 PDT 2015
