Sounds like an incomplete installation of the NVIDIA driver.  Or possibly a 
system update was performed post–driver installation.

The NVIDIA driver ships its own version of libGL that is incompatible with the 
Mesa version shipped by default with your distro.  I wouldn't expect the 
NVIDIA–shipped libGL to be trying to load anything nouveau–related.

If you install the driver from repositories (e.g. apt-get install 
nvidia-driver) then this is all handled for you with update-alternatives, but 
if you manually install a driver from nvidia.com you run into all sorts of 
problems like the above.
