hey guys. Kubuntu seems to work flawlessly now that i have a cd to install from (instead of installing through windows). There is only one problem: i cannot get my mobility radeon 9000 to work. I tried running some of the widgets included and i get an error "opengl shaders not supported". I know my card supports opengl shaders! I have tried installing the ati drivers with envyng...my screen stopped working on reboot. I uninstalled those drivers.
I dont know what im supposed to install, or how. could someone please help me step by step..point me towards a good post?
here is some info i have grasped from some other posts.
