The new fglrx drivers as installed at http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/9.4
seem to fix the memory leak. After 3h normal usage, X is at 175MB of ram.

I know that the new fglrx doesn't support cards before the HD2000 series, which is why it wasn't included in Jaunty in the first place, however this is a killer memory leak. Is there a way to talk to upstream and get a patch for this issue at the very least?

Or, provide both sets of drivers and allow jockey to differentiate between cards needing the old set, and cards that can use the new set?
