no, it is not. The latest are 180something and they solved some 2d slowness issues with that driver. > Is it needed to switch off Composite with that version ? composite makes 2d very slow with drivers prior to 180. You don't have to disable composite in xorg.conf. Just don't use compiz and deactivate all effects in gnome/kde. btw, xorg.conf would be nice to see.
