Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: displayconfig-gtk

Dell Inspiron 9300, with Radeon X300 video, and 1920x1200 screen.
Ubuntu 7.04 was originally installed last year, and upgraded through 7.10 to 
8.04 two days ago. 
The screen is so slow as to be practically unusable. Something is wrong with 
the driver.

Typing :
~$ glxinfo | grep 
stringserver glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
client glx vendor string: SGI
client glx version string: 1.4
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (2.1 Mesa 7.0.3)

System | Preferences | Appearance | Visual Effects is set to "None".
In Screen and Graphics Preferences, Screen 1 is set to LCD Panel 1920x1200 
(widescreen)
Resolution: 1920x1200 at 60 Hz
Graphics Cards is set to "ati - ATI Mach8, Mach32, ...etc."
I would like to change this last setting to "radeon - ATI Radeon cards, 
including Radeon Mobility and FireGL", which would seem to correspond to what I 
have. But it won't have it: each time I log in again, it's been set back to 
"ATI - Mach8, Mach32, etc."
It is while trying to do this that the "display config-gtk"crashed.

I am attaching the xorg.conf file.

The computer is almost unusable. (help!)
