The problem looks to be a BORKED driver:

	The 8.454 driver causes errors on openSuSE 10.3 running 
2.6.22.13-0.3-default kernel on a Toshiba P35 laptop. The card is a ATI 
Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] with Chipset: "ATI 
MOBILITY RADEON 9600/9700 Series" (Chipset = 0x4e50). glxgears 
framerates drop from 2100 to 517 with the new driver and the driver 
causes kernel errors, does not initialize DRI and does not provide 3D 
acceleration. A summary of the Xorg.0.log errors are:

10:59 Rankin-P35a~> grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(EE) fglrx(0): Failed to initialize ASIC in kernel.
(EE) fglrx(0): [agp] Failed to set AGP mode!

	The errors in context in the relevant parts of the Xorg.0.log.
