Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lbreakout2

I've been playing this game since Ubuntu 7.10 (on an older machine with much 
worse specs) without much in the way of problems.  Since switching to 11.04 
(clean install) the game has become unplayable.  When there is not much going 
on (one ball in play, no power-ups falling down) gameplay is OK.  Once there 
are several balls in play, power-ups in use, etc (anything that increases the 
graphics demand) it starts getting very choppy, as if there are a lot of 
dropped frames, and it becomes impossible to keep track of the ball.
The game worked fine in Ubuntu 10.10, and my hardware hasn't changed (Core2Duo, 
2GB RAM, AMD Firestream with proprietary drivers), so I don't know what the 
difference is.  It's not that Unity is using up more resources, because I had 
the same problem using Ubuntu Classic.
