Sorry for the delay. The issue happens on someone else's computer, and I get to use it for about two days every two months, so it's a bit hard for me to answer quickly with new information. Right now I'm using this computer again, until tomorrow night :)
The computer is effectively using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx, and the issue is still there. As an example, when I open System Monitor in GNOME, the processor's activity graph shows always 100%. Then I swtich windows and do something else in the console, for example, and then come back to the System Monitor. Now the graph shows the processor's history was not always 100%, but now that I'm looking at the graph and it's being redrawn, processor is again at 100%. The other example is the one I talked about in my initial report. If I open a gnome-terminal and look at ``vmstat 1``, cpu's idle time is constantly around 50%. If I start moving gnome-terminal's window around, idle time suddently changes to a constant 0. I think there's a problem with redrawing which is eating the processor and not using the video card properly. If that's the case, this bug might be easy or really hard to fix. If the problem is a setting in Xorg's conf file, then it'll be easy. But if the problem is the kernel has no good support for this card, then I guess this is almost a lost case, since the card is really old and pretty likely no one will ever attempt to fix this.
