What video card are you using? Do you have these options listed in
your /etc/xorg.conf file?

For my video card (a Radeon 9000 Pro, using the radeon driver) I have:

Section "Module"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "extmod"
        Load  "fbdevhw"
        Load  "glx"      <===     this is the module the error shows as missing
        Load  "record"
        Load  "freetype"
        Load  "type1"
        Load  "dri"
EndSection

If you add the glx line to the Module section of your xorg.conf file
(and your hardware supports it) does this help you out?
