After months i finaly installed my driver and all is working perfect(3d Acc, and those desktop effects).
If you just install the drivers from ati and reboot it will end with a black screen so:
Install ubuntu(8.04 tested) and dont update it ,just folow these steps.
1. go to Ati site and download x1600 radeon driver
2. open terminal and write>> "sudo sh "and drag the downloaded driver into the terminal ,hit enter and instal it.
3. write in terminal : sudo aticonfig --initial
4. write in terminal : sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
5. write in terminal : sudo aticonfig --resolution=0,1024x768
6. reboot
And done.
Donno if this exist,but more is better ,for those who dont know
