Now i googled and found that i should install correct driver. So I downloaded "ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run" (this was the only option available for my ATI radeon X1300 series)
................................................................................
............................................
sh ./ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run
Created directory fglrx-install.Z23219
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

After this i did:

also glxinfo, and glxgears gives the same error
and "ls -lh /usr/lib | grep GL" gives (just to give more information)

Please suggest how to correct this. Any input would be greatly appreciated (Also sorry for the long post)
