It looks like you installed nvidia drivers either directly from nvidia
or some other outside source packaged wrongly which interferes with the
mesa install. If the former is the case, remove them by running

sudo sh NVIDIA-whateveryourfileiscalled.run --uninstall

replacing "whateveryourfileiscalled" with the relevant line from the
package you installed with. You can also run

sudo nvidia-installer --uninstall

if you no longer have the package around. Then you can update everything
normally and then install the nvidia binary drivers ubuntu provides. If
you need more recent drivers than currently in karmic there are PPAs
with .deb packages you can use for it so it does not break the package
management system in the manner you describe such as
