I have a Dell Latitude D610 with an ATI Radeon Mobile X300 which ran great under Gutsy with Compiz.

Now that I upgraded to Hardy I can't use any special effects without the screen becoming all choppy and slow to respond.

Checkout the screenshot of me trying to scroll on ESPN. It does with simple text too.

I have tried getting the driver from the ATI Radeon site but that doesn't work either.

Do I have to edit my xorg.conf file?

WTF
