Hi!
I just got my X800XL working in Ubuntu Feisty. Apart from AA performance in Blender it's really nice.
There is a nice guide on how to get two monitors running:

Here is a fglrx manual. man fglrx doesn't work for me.
Here's part of my working xorg.conf. It enables Bigdesktop:

In the CCC AGP speed is 0. Should I worry about that?
The built in 3d screen savers are very slow (for example Hufo's Tunnel). Can I do something about this?
