Joachim, I'm running into the same issue on a SuSe SLED10 box. The 32bit binary (on the 64bit OS) displays the same behavior, i.e. only the MESA libs were used. The 64bit version actually core dumps during startup. I opened up a bug report with Schrodinger and they were already working on it (I suppose the crash), but wouldn't hurt to reinforce the fact that the 32bit version only uses the MESA libs (under SuSe?). Good that your tried the more recent drivers, I was planning to do that but haven't got around to do this yet.
