Tried a few things tonight.

It seems that ati 6.7.196 does work quite well if I power off the PC rather than restart it. I got the PC to start 2 or 3 times tonight having powered off without error and still showing glxgears around 500 FPS.

I then installed the latest radeon drm modules using the Tormod easy installer. This was not so good as hardware acceleration seemed to fail altogether and glxgears dropped down to 95 FPS! I read the instructions but don't know how to restore back to standard Gutsy release of drm. I realise I have to download some files and then delete the drm-20071125 folder ... and re-run the install but don't know where to get the drm files? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
