Bumping your thread within one hour is completely unnecessary and will only annoy people who would otherwise help you.

Please give us some more information

What are the specs of your 'puter?
What method did you use to install?
Did the Live-CD work, Did you use wubi?

Without further info none of us will be able to help you!

So, does that allow you a gui desktop?

If so go to System > Administration > Additional drivers and see if it finds the ATI driver for your GPU.
