So, let's make some updates then...

After this post, from that date, i try with different configs and stuff.
Finally, configuring xorg.conf with some "modeline" on the screen
section, i got to make the new driver work...but...

At the beggining, nothing wrong. A little more slow than Lucid, but
hell, it works. Then, start to play with the driver.

On "glxinfo", everything's fine, except for an...
----------------------------------------------------------------
X Error of failed request:  BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  136 (XFree86-DRI)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  9 ()
  Resource id in failed request:  0x5000004
  Serial number of failed request:  44
  Current serial number in output stream:  44
-----------------------------------------------------------------
...let's assume that this error it was, possibly, by the terminal emulator from XFCE. 

Next, "glxgears". Garbage screen, black screen, X reboot. Back to the
login screen.

Opening evolution, and start to work on it, then it close by itself.

Browsers, no problem. Flash also works OK.

Video? NO way. Garbage screen, X reboot.

So, after this testing, trying with and downloading (and by the way,
synaptic won't let me downgrade. Fixing sources.list from "maverick" to
"lucid" did the trick), and voila. As Hans say, no problem at all.
glxgears runs smooth (as smooth this Video card can), and the rest? OK,
too.

Checking /var/log/Xorg.0.log , Why is DRI2 being load? I'll think that DRI2 can't be supported on this card. 
Just a Guess.
