I know this is off topic but to the person who has problems with ati drivers then look at this. "If fglrxinfo doesn't display the ATI name which I dont think it will (maybe something else like mesa) go here http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...allation_Guide. This is a good walkthrough on how to add to 8.04 but there will be one for early versions.
If it does show Ati just try adding Option "TexturedVideo" under driver = fglrx in your xorg.conf. If it doesn't work I recommend the link. Made enormous difference. I can now display 1920x1080 with MythTv whereas before it was very jerky.
