Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

I upgraded my laptop to Lucid somewhere around Alpha 2.

The first thing that I noticed is that the display was much slower than in Karmic. I tried to run with and without modesetting, but there is no difference.

Compositing worked fine in Karmic, however it is useless in Lucid, which means that performance of both 2D and 3D regreessed.

CPU load of Xorg is high as soon as there is some activity on the screen.

I was also trying to enable different options in xorg.conf (http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon) with no success.
