Just to confirm, you're using the drivers direct from Nvidia here? The
above error from glxinfo generally indicates that you've updated
xserver-xorg-core more recently than the Nvidia driver.

The Debian package ships libglx.so, which the Nvidia drivers overwrite
with a symlink to their own driver. Upgrading the package will reinstall
the shipped module, leading to the error.
