I'm 95% sure you don't have hardware acceleration enabled. With nvidia drivers it's as simple as installing nvidia-glx package and using one command to enable it. ATI drivers are much worse.
Maybe someone else can help you, but now you know what to look for. Search the forum or http://wiki.ubuntu.com
