as far as i know you have two choices:

1.
use AIGLX, but then you CAN'T use fglrx. i had a look at
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon
and it looks that your chipset is supported, so use 'radeon' instead of
'fglrx' in the driver section of xorg.

2.
disable composite and use XGL with fglrx.
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf use 
	Option  "Composite"     "Disable"

although i havnt had much luck with XGL. radeon 9800 here...
