Arch i686 and RuneScape HD Issues

I know that I'll get yelled at by some people for wanting to play RuneScape, but let's forget about that for now.

I have xorg installed with the xf86-video-ati driver for my Radeon X850XT card, the driver seems to be working just fine with everything else.
My Desktop Environment is LXDE, with Openbox. I don't have any compositor enabled unless one is enabled by default.

The problem is, RuneScape software (standard) detail works fine but is a bit laggy (that is to be expected, with no hardware support), but as soon as I enable hardware (high) definition, I'm not sure what happens exactly, but it seems to be a sort-of crash for the xserver. The mouse moves but "jumps" across the screen as I move it. The desktop environment itself stops responding and freezes.

XORG version:
version number: 11.0
X.Org version: 1.6.3.901

JRE verison:
java version "1.6.0_16"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.2-b01, mixed mode

Firefox version:
Mozilla Firefox 3.5.3, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2009 mozilla.org

Can anyone provide assistance?
Much thanks!

All I can say is, good luck. I can't even get it to work very stable (best I can do is make it work, but with random crashes every half hour or so), and I have an Nvidia card. With ATI, I don't really thing you'll be able to get it to work very easily...Does your card support fglrx? If so, try that.

I got it to work in my chroot on Arch64, unfortunately, as said above it crashes every 30 minutes or so. This was in a chroot and I also have an Nvidia card though.

17:24 < ConSiGno> you could call them nightly builds if you know what I mean
