Which version of context and luatex does hardy ship with? In Gusty I had 
to set

TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c
LUAINPUTS=$MYTEXMF/tex/context/base/:$MYTEXMF/scripts/context/lua

where $MTEXMF is the directory where I instal the latest context. Both 
mkii and mkiv work fine with this setup. I have not tried xetex.
