    Sorry, played all my cards trying to initialize your video system.
    Armagetron won't run on your computer. Reason:

    I'll try again from the beginning, but the chances of success are minimal.

    you also have to change a few more things in the x.org file, namely:

    find these lines:
    Load "dri"
    Load "GLCore"
    replace both with
    Load "glx"
    you can also comment out the Load "dri" part by placing a # in front of the Load option.
    Life is complex, it has a real part and an imaginary part.

    The xorg.conf looks fine, the lines arent there (load "dri" and "glcore"), and the line Load "glx" is ok

    Have you installed Open GL? Asking just in case

    No, I installed NVIDIA Drivers and thought Open GL would be installed automatically with them as it was in Windows. Didn't they ?

    Yes, you do not need to separately install OpenGL to get the Nvidia drivers to work. Nvidia installs their own libGL.so files when you install the driver. What video card do you have?
