Hi

(--) intel(0): Chipset: "852GM/855GM"
(==) intel(0): Shadow buffer enabled, GPU acceleration disabled.

(WW) intel(0): cannot enable DRI2 whilst forcing software fallbacks

Google for this ((WW) ...) and your distro, when copying the warning 
into google search I found e.g this:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2010/11/msg01403.html

glxinfo -l
root@debian:/home/lm# glxinfo -l
bash: glxinfo: command not found

On a proper setup glxinfo and glxgears are usually installed, make sure 
that they are there.

I guess glx/dri is not/not correct working on your system, I guess it is 
at least installed partially because the DRI modules seem to load:
(II) LoadModule: "dri"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so
(II) Module dri: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
	compiled for 1.7.7, module version = 1.0.0
	ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 2.0
(II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI
(II) LoadModule: "dri2"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri2.so
(II) Module dri2: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
	compiled for 1.7.7, module version = 1.1.0
	ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 2.0
(II) Loading extension DRI2

(II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 855GM

This is not a brilliant performer, but it should work at least, if you 
have set up your system properly and have working drivers. It is one of 
the easier to set up chip sets if I remember correct, so give it a try.

The -s option just disables multitexturing, but OpenGL must work 
beforehand as well.

Technically there are 3 components involved:
- DRM kernel module, DRI
- X Server GLX module
- OpenGL libraries

Hope this helps

Best regards
