Let's see... Tested on Lubuntu 14.04 LTS, fully updated.
Phenom II X4 810 @2600 MHz
4 GB DDR2 800 MHz
Radeon 6850 1GB
- Still unacceptably long loading times in Source games.
- Stuttering/memory fragmentation is a bit improved. While it makes HL2(EP2) a bit better, L4D2 still runs better on a P4 computer with Windows XP and 1GB RAM.
- The Witcher 2 with EON wrapper seems to be a little bit better, still unplayable though.
- Wine (1.7) seems to be broken for anything 3D (including OpenGL).
- System Shock 2 with the Crossover wrapper seems to work though.
- Heaven frame rate seems to be terrible compared to Windows.
- OpenMW runs like crap.
- Same CCC, no new features.
- VA-API works.
- Still no HTML5 acceleration in Firefox. (Fish tank still has a single-digit frame rate. Runs fine with Radeon drivers.)
The "major" update doesn't seem to be so major after all...
Back to Radeon!

sudo apt-get install vainfo
It will pull all dependencies including libva and you can then type "vainfo" and see if it works.
For Gstreamer acceleration (Firefox, Totem) you also need
sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-vaapi
If you use VLC, you need to manually activate it in the settings at Input/Codecs.
