Installing the proprietary drivers helps a little but neither works as well as windows on this machine. I would prefer to use the open source drivers as if possible. ATI radeon HD 5470 Ubuntu 11.10. Upgrading to oenric didn't help at all in fact it may have made things worse as I have experienced a few crashes already.
