render errors

I posted this in the discussion for another ATI problem. I decided to start my own thread to see if I could get my problem solved. Here is what I posted before:

I ran the howto here (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3567&highlight=ati) and when I run tuxracer I notice that it runs faster than before, but there are a bunch of random polygons everywhere. I get the same problem with tuxkart. How do I fix that? :-(

Output of various commands:

lsmod | grep fglrx

My fgl_glxgears command works fine and I get over 500 FPS

glxgears produces the following output and works fine:

I used the debs posted. You add the line to your /etc/apt/sources.list
Then update your sorces,
Then you follow the regular instructions. In my case I just updated my fglrx-driver. You can use apt with the following:
sudo apt-get install fglrx-driver
or you can use the package manager.
