Comment 1 Thomas Lübking 2013-12-30 22:45:28 UTC
Your GL installation is broken, the loaded GL library is from fglrx (catalyst) but apparently your loading some other (vesa, radeon) driver. Since the fglrx libGL is incompatible with the mesa one, each and every OpenGL application will crash.

Check the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log about what X11 driver is loaded and why.
Running "sudo aticonfig --initial -f" *might* fix the setup (towards using fglrx)
