With the 185.18.14 driver on the 2.6.30-10-generic kernel in Jaunty, the openarena benchmark has improved to around 300 fps in the openarena benchmark. This is still well below the 450 in the Hardy/Intrepid/173.14.12 combination, although to be fair I couldn't reproduce these results last time I tried.
wine COD4 typically runs at a better framerate, though with 185.18.14/kernel 2.6.30; 25-35 fps in 'war pig'.

I think the 'stuttering' in frame rate that I reported a few comments below can be attributed to compiz - see https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/bugs/ 380129.
