Hello everybody. I am a new user of linux, ubuntu, terminal and even to this forum. I am really having fun while trying to learn things about linux. I am using Ubuntu 12.04lts right now and i am not having too much trouble, just one, about the graphic card ati x1600.
I did lots of stuff about the packages and the "sudo apt-get update" kinda things and more but could not solve my problem for about 3whole days. I learned that after the ubuntu 8.04 i am not able to install the proper fglrx driver for my gpu, so i installed ubuntu 8.04 but after i did that i realized it is only text mode and i am not that skilled to handle the kernel for now.
So now i need some information and suggestion about what should i do.
Is there any simple way for me to create a desktop style thing for 8.04, it is so called gnome i think but i am not sure. And is it enough for me to use 8.04 with a graphical user interface?
Is there any way for me to use 12.04 with a proper fglrx driver?
And my expectations from my computer is the Mozilla, 1game called Heroes of Newerth, some office programs, and watching movies and listening to music. Not that much i guess
I hope i could express myself correct and any help will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks in advance, have a nice day.
edit: i am also having trouble watching movies from mozilla like "youtube" videos etc, but i think it is from the same problem above?
