Mobility Radeon 9000 roll back driver

Hi there,

Up until now, I was using the standard Fedora Core 2 "radeon" driver for 
my mobility 9000. It was working fine, but I decided that I'd give the 
official ATI driver a go. After installing it, and not being satisfied 
with the results, I decided to roll back the driver to the original 
Fedora Core 2. After having done this:

rpm -e fglrx

and having restored /ect/X11/xorg.conf to the one I had before I tried 
the ATI driver, my fedora driver works, but seems very very slow. That 
must mean that the ATI installation driver touched some files that 
affected the performance of the original Fedora driver. Does anyone know 
how to get back to the original, out-of-the-box configuration that came 
with Fedora and that was working very well? I'd rather avoid 
reinstalling the whole OS if possible.

Thanks very much!

Carles
