No problem. I removed it (apt-get remove xlibmesa-gl)
and it removed all of my kde stuff (hey I am easy!!)

Then I went through the install of the drivers according to plan.
I reused my XF86Config-4 .
Then I did 
apt-get install kde

of course it bombed on 
kscreensaver
xbase-clients
xlibmesa-glu

and it wont install kdegraphics kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdeutils kdepim and 
quanta.
Shall I make a backup copy of the good libGL.so 
(/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 ), 
then do a apt-get -f install to  overwrite it (temporarily),
and then sneakily copy it back over the copy that comes from xlibmesa-glu?
(I have not tricked with the debian install before)
