Could you run the following command in a shell under X and post the
result back to the list?
        glxinfo

Just to be sure and not to waste time, is the following packages
installed correctly?
        xlibmesa-dri
        xlibmesa-gl
        xlibmesa-glu
        nvidia-glx (only if you have NVIDIA VGA card)
        xorg-driver-fglrx (only if you have ATI VGA card)

I hope this helps.
Ziyad.
