There is no problem to have them there, and you will probably need them for 2d acceleration.

Re: editing Xorg.conf

I don't have Modules section in my xorg.conf and xorg still loads glx and dri, they must be compiled into xorg or something. So you can remove those, but it doesn't change anything or maybe it does, I don't know. Try it and if something broke, put them back.
