OK all, forget the previous update, I have managed to execute tjhe
proposed workaround but I'm now facing the following:

According to the driver manager (System-Administration-Hardware Drivers)
the propriatary fglrx driver is available AND enabled. However, when I
want to enable visual effects there's a long driver search resulting in
'desktop effects could not be enabled'.

Running Forlong's compiz-check script
(http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check) gives the
following output:

---------------------------------------------------

./compiz-check

Gathering information about your system...

 Distribution:          Ubuntu 10.04
 Desktop environment:   GNOME
 Graphics chip:         ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 2400
 Driver in use:         radeon
 Rendering method:      None

Checking if it's possible to run Compiz on your system...  [SKIP]

 Checking for hardware/setup problems...           [SKIP]

At least one check had to be skipped:
 Error: No rendering method in use (AIGLX, Xgl or Nvidia) 

-----------------------------------------------------

Now what?
