no control panel for card desktop effects not enable no visible change in anykind of video

Check out this link for desktop effects with open source drivers https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver. As for no control panel for card and no visible change in anykind of video I'm sort of lost as to what you mean there.

I decided to update my ATI driver (bad idea) and so I did it...everything seemed ok but when I tryed to run some D3D applications...the whole screen was like...what`s going on here xD

Desktop effects will not work because 3D is not supported by the open source radeon driver. As for no control panel for card and no visible change in anykind of video I'm sort of lost as to what you mean there.

3D and desktop effects are supported by the open-source driver on the Radeon 9000 and have been for some time. I use the open-source driver and have full use of compiz with no problems at all and have done so since before compiz was a part of the default Ubuntu install.

Yeah, I had to do a double-take, as I knew that wasn't what I saw the first time around.
