Hi,
  This looks like a video driver problem. What video chipset or
GPU do you have in this machine? It looks like you've got Mesa
as your video driver, which means you're not getting any hardware
acceleration, and things like GLSL probably won't work correctly.
Can you get an updated driver for your machine?

Cheers,
  John Stone
