Looks like a problem with the mirror urpmi is using on your system, what's the output of:
su
urpmi --test -v glxinfo

After that, I have installed glxinfo manually via urpmi.
But in MCC, glxinfo said that nouveau driver for Nvidia chips doen't support 3D Desktop.

I hope that in Alpha2 glxinfo will be installed automatically by Mageia when it will needed in MCC for 3D desktop.

"Le paquetage glxinfo-8.0.1-5.mga1.i586 est déjà installé" means the package is already installed.

You can test by uninstalling glxinfo, and launching drak3d, to see if it'll manage to install glxinfo or not. (and yes nouveau doesn't support 3d desktop by default, 3d support is still considered experimental upstream AFAIK).

Closing as worksforme, reopen if you can reproduce this bug.
