Thanks. Does not look like something is broken (except for having the
nvidia packages installed manually on a system that does not support
them). Which nvidia packages do you have installed?

dpkg -l | grep nvidia

(I would guess neither nvidia-driver nor xserver-xorg-video-nvidia).


To "fix" your system, either uninstall the nvidia packages (they are not
useful on your system anyway) or switch back to mesa:
  update-alternatives --config glx
and select mesa


I don't think I can express this with package relationships:

libgl1-nvidia-glx needs to be installed
  (1) together with xserver-xorg-video-nvidia (and xserver-xorg-core)
      (regular installation on a host)
  (2) OR without xserver-xorg-core (and xserver-xorg-video-nvidia)
      (i.e. libraries from a foreign architecture only or in a chroot
       without own xserver)
i.e. only the combination
  install libgl1-nvidia-glx:native
  install xserver-xorg-core:native
  no-install xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
should be forbidden.
