No offense to the IW guys, but I suspect the "problem" (for lack of a better word) is in their engine and not in the Open GL drivers, because the Omega drivers did improve performance for Doom 3.
Doom 3 is a popluar benchmark, so ATI optimizes their drivers especially for it in order to score well. If Dominions was a popular benchmark as well, I bet your driver upgrade would have made wonders for the framerate. Hmmm... we should get a hardware reviewer to play Dominions and make it the next major graphics benchmark

IIRC, all those ATi Users (me at work included ) get either 8, 15.x or 32 fps .. so it looks to me as if some strange sync thing is going on.
This would be either a SDL or a Dom2 issue .. did you ever contact the SDL developers about this?
