I think I'm doing something wrong here ...
Today I updated to Ubuntu 10.04. I did a clean install, only migrating my /home which lies on a different partition. I then installed fglrx via Administration --> Hardware Drivers and did an "aticonfig --initial".
Performance is absolutely abysmal, especially in OpenGL-applications. I get around 250fps in glxgears, while the OSS-driver reaches 1600fps. I don't know what numbers I had on Karmic, but fglrx used to outperform the OSS-drivers by a significant amount. Other apps (a small clutter-program i wrote and snes9x) are basically unusable.
I'd use the OSS-driver, unfortunately it's deep frying my card. Using ForceLowPowerMode is not an option, because that means turning off kms which somehow destroys OpenGL completely ...
I'm not using any Visual Effects ? strangely enough enabling them gives me better performance (around 900fps in glxgears).
I already tried this:

No use though.
Any help is very much appreciated.
