Like I commented on bug 385539, I fixed this temporarily by installing libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-glx from the Jaunty repositories.

I'm now getting

direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)

and

OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 20060602 AGP 8x x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE TCL
OpenGL version string: 1.3 Mesa 7.4

from glxinfo, and glxgears flicker.

Desktop effects are back to Jaunty-speeds, though. I thought I'd have to go back to 9.04, but this should tide me over.
