Ubuntu, OpenGL on Windows 7 / ATI host?

This is frustrating, partially due to my lack of experience. I can't get OGL to work on my Ubuntu vm on my desktop which is running an ATI 4870 and Intel 775.
I have installed the latest ATI drivers on host and guest, and have updated the guest additions. 3D is enabled on the VM and GPU memory is boosted to 128mb.
Any thoughts on what I can try?

Installing ati-drivers in guest does not make any sense!
and have updated the guest additions.
Updated? You have to install it.
Btw, paste the output of
glxinfo (requires mesa-tools installed)
from your guest.

Thanks for the quick response! I thought installing the drivers seemed silly - perhaps I was just misreading something.
I had updated the guest additions that I had previously installed from 4.0.0 to 4.0.2, or .3?
Here is the output, as requested:

I went through this procedure to remove the ATI/Catalyst stuff:

Rebooted and everything is okay. glxinfo prints out a long list of data.
