I use the output of "glxgears -printfps". On my T43, it's over 2600 FPS (kernel
2.6.16 and fglrx 8.24.8) and only 220 FPS now with 8.28 and kernel 2.6.17.

No, fglrx is certainly working. The only warning is
(WW) fglrx(0): board is an unknown third party board, chipset is supported
I had 8.24 working with hardware acceleration with kernel 2.6.16. But now this
kernel is no longer officially supported in sid and 8.24 FTBFS with kernel
2.6.17. :-(
