Further observations: I *can* install the fglrx driver with a command
like:

---<cut>---
sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle
---<tuc>---

(which installs the Catalyst Control Center, in addition to the actual
driver). I can then activate it with:

---<cut>---
sudo aticonfig --initial
---<tuc>---

When I subsequently reboot, the fglrx driver becomes active--but with
*HORRIBLE* performance. While I'm dragging a window, for example, a
trail gets left behind, until I drop the window in its final position.
Also, none of the compositing features built in to KDE4 can be
activated. With these issues, I wouldn't even *dare* try compiz-fusion!

I'll stick with Ubuntu (GDM/GNOME) for now, and forget about Kubuntu
until next year (i.e., the 10.04 or 10.10 release).
