Well I just installed ubuntu 9.04. I have a dual display set up with a 22 inch dell monitor and a smaller tft dell monitor. At first when I installed ubuntu the graphics driver didnt install it was in restricted drivers. I installed this driver but it didnt work. It slowed the computer right down.
I then downloaded and installed ATI Catalyst Control Center which works but is also slow and its dual monitor options dont work well. For one when I move the mouse from screen to screen the mouse stays on the previous screen at the corner. it is also very jumpy when moving windows from screen to screen. Im a ubuntu noob so any help would be great.

Thanks!
