The latest ATI drivers (8.42.3) are broken. From the release notes,
see also my previous post:
"Several distribution-specific packaging scripts are not up-to-date in
this release. In particular packaging for 64-bit Ubuntu versions is
known to be broken. A topic number is not available for this issue"

- So downloading from ATI doesn't work.

- This source package is a version that matches the Xorg driver in
Ubuntu, so that is another good reason to try this kernel-source
package. Alas - that does not work either.

- Last option: use "restricted" pre-compiled packages. Unfortunately,
gutsy's kernel does not boot on my machine.

End result: my system thinks that I should use compiz - with Software
OpenGL. I'm scrolling text in lines per minute.

I am not amused.
