Your output is the same as mine. However like I said before load dri and load GLcore are removed in my XConfig.

What I did worked on a Libranet install which is Debian based however some will say it's a bastardize Debian. 

I renamed those files libGL.so.bu & LibGL.so.1.bu 
After this everything worked. I'm not sure sure why this problem occurs though.
