Bug#626110: Programs using clutter fail with "Unable to find suitable fbconfig for the GLX context"

Package: libclutter-1.0-0
Version: 1.6.10-3
Severity: normal

Programs using clutter have recently started to fail. geeqie, for
example:

> (geeqie:9963): Clutter-CRITICAL **: Unable to initialize Clutter:
>  Unable to find suitable fbconfig for the GLX context
> Can't initialize clutter-gtk.

This also happens with gnibbles (although that program then goes on to
fail more spectacularly). Haven't tried any others.

glxgears works fine.

geeqie was working fine as recently as a week ago. I run aptitude
updates almost every day, so I presume the problem began after one of
those.

glxinfo output and xdpyinfo output attached.
