The avivo driver (for the ATI X1600 video card in the MBP C1D) is moving.

Debian has a new version of the driver in experimental. One big
feature is the support of shadow framebuffer to speed up 2D a lot. The
driver is now usable for me.

If you do not use Debian you can use the git upstream repository
directly or wait until your distribution package the driver for you.
