And since i dont think its useing the ati driver everything is a bit choppy and a cant use the emerald theme manager because every time i try to change the theme in the terminal window after i type "emerald --replace" it just keeps saying "Loading..." and things like watching video in vlc is choppy. Any ideas guys?

    On your app bar there should be a hardware manager applet. Open it and see if your ATI card appears with a check box. If so, make sure the box is checked and press okay. It should download and install the correct driver for your card.

    If not, we'll try to track down what driver you're using and what exact card you have (may affect driver options)... These terminal commands should help us figure some things out:

    lspci -nn | grep -i vga

    grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf

    grep -i driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log
