Hello Jeb E.

could you check the following. With the proprietary driver installed, go into screen saver mode (or some mode that turns off the screen due to inactivity), log in from a different machine via ssh and check the CPU load via top. (alternatively follow the instructions at the following link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/969860)
I am experiencing the bug 969860 therefore I am staying away from fglrx.

Thank you very much.
