Larry,

I installed the new driver and everything seems ok, speed is much better (I'm 
getting 2095 fps with an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro) but, and this is a BIG "but", 
GoogleEarth no longer works.
It worked fine with the 8.3x.x versions of the driver. I've even uninstalled 
the 8.40.4 driver according to ATI's instructions and re-installed it the 
wiky way but the problem remains.
Do you have any hints of what I might try?
GoogleEarth is probably the only app I really need a functional ATI driver 
for. It didn't work with open drivers or the fglrx driver distributed with 
kubuntu until you came out with your wiki and now I'm back to stake zero.

Best regards,
Antonio
