OK, thanks for that info. Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" will be released in approximately 1 week. It contains some significant performance improvements for ATI cards, due to the implementation of KMS page-flipping and the switch from the classic Mesa (R600c) driver to the R600 Gallium3D (R600g) driver. See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1104_radeon&num=1
Could you please test the low power profile on Natty once it is released and report back here?
