If you have installed nvidia's glx, symlinks in /usr/lib get reset to point to nvidia's GL libaries instead of ones in xlibmesa3... Also symlink to libGLcore. Look at /usr/share/nvidia-glx/diversions/ and /usr/share/nvidia-glx/diversions-X11R6. I think you need to reset symlinks or uninstall nvidia's glx. -- Jerome
