Whatever you do decalog, if you get Envy installed that is, DO NOT use the ‘automatically install ati drivers’ option. It will crash X, and it will not work correctly. I am searching for the site I used to install the ati drivers that worked. It’s the only site I’ve found that actually works for 3D acceleration. A good thing to look for in a tutorial is the author telling you to NOT use the fglrx driver. fglrx is what messes your 3D acceleration up.

My opinion: I’ll post the site when I find it. Read it line for line, all the way through BEFORE you do aNYTHING, because sometimes it will give you alternatives that you may not want to do, then skipping the alternatives, install the driver manually EXACTLy as the tutorial says.

Good luck.
