 Long time ago, when ati broke the 3D support on ati 92000 card with its 
 propriaritary driver, I used a workaround by creating a symbolic link between 
 libGL and an older version of libGL:
 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 - libGL.so.propriaritary_lib_before_broken_support
 
 after, ati finally announced that they will not support anymore ati
 9200. I switched to the excellent free radeon driver. With this free
 driver my symbolic link was on /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 but I forgot to
 remove the propriaritary lib.
 
 After the edgy to feisty migration, I don't know why but the symbolinc
 link was on the libGL.so.propriaritary_lib_before_broken_support.
 
 So, I deleted the symbolic link (and the old lib) and recreate a new one
 on /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2. It works fine and I even have the desktop
 effect.
 
I can confirm that this indeed solved the problem. Hm, I wonder why the
old lib was not purged.
Anyway, hopefully someone with a similar problem will find this
solution.
Cheers

Oh, indeed... you cannot have both fglrx and the free driver installed,
the proprietary need to be purged before using the free one.

I know. When I had installed the free radeon driver, I prealably
desinstalled  the fglrx driver and fixed the symbolic link. The fglrx
libGl was left in the directory even if it wasn't used (I forgot to
remove it because I had put it manually to fix a 3D problem when I used
fglrx) and it seems that during the migration edgy-feisty, the symbolic
link was recreated on the fglrx libGl and not on the new libGl.so.1.2
arrived with the migration.
