I had the same problem. It turned out I needed
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 135336 Jul 2 06:31 libextmod.a
in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extentsions, and then:
then I had to update /etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "Module"
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
# SubSection "extmod"
# Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
# EndSubSection
Load "extmod"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
EndSection
I had to comment out the 3 lines, and then add the 'Load "extmod"' line.
After that, it works great.
