Eventually you could also try the radeonhd driver (for jaunty: from https://edge.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive , for 8.10: from https://edge.launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive). Note, however, that with radeonhd you have to add Option "DRI" in your xorg.conf to enable Xv. --

With the X300 and all effects turned off, the system is perfectly stable and sensible. The comment about fglrx was made at a time when the ATI-provided driver did not support the X Composite extension. I believe this has now changed, although I have not tested it. Thesedays I actually use an NVid
