Thanks for your report.

The freeze you reported originally was probably cause d by the ABI change to X 1.10. There has been a short period of time during which the driver and X were out of sync, that's why the update fixed it.

About the Unity unstability, do you have accessibility enabled on your system ?
To check this open the accessibility preferences dialog:
  * With Unity click on the top-right 'Power' icon, select 'System settings' then 'Assistive technologies'
  * With classic desktop: Click on the top left icon, select 'System/Preferences/Assistive technologies'

And check that none of the checkbox is checked.

If assistive technologies is not enabled and you are experiencing the Unity freeze with Alt+tab or other action could you please file a new report against Unity with the command: ubuntu-bug unity

About the performance issue, is it just that the rendering of glxgears being stall or the performance being bad ? If so, what performances do you usually get with this system and what is the degradation compared to a previous version of the driver ?
