Hi. Tho I have never ran Linux in a virtual machine (just don't see the point when it is so easy to dual boot) I'll attempt to help.Have you checked in the system/administration tab for new hardware drivers and activated the driver? Ubuntu should scan for the needed drivers and if they are available locate them for you. I've never had luck with the Catalyst software. Not saying it won't work,but with my configuration it wouldn't and was easier to just install the driver straight out.Also the file is NOT self installing . you will need to execute the program to install it from the command line and navigate to the folder where it was unzipped to. I've done it before while attemting to install the catalyst program,but as I said,in my case i had no luck. You mileage may vary.to get you started, Open terminal and enter in sudo and hit enter (this makes you root) then :1 Launch the Terminal Application/Window and navigate to the ATI Propri-etary Linux driver you have downloaded.2 Enter the command sh ./ati-driver-installer-9.2-x86.x86_64.run to launch theATI Proprietary Linux driver installer.follow the prompts thru the graphical installation program and at the end you will have to reboot (or in this case maybe shut Ubuntu down and restart as it is in a virtual machine?) as i said i've never ran it in a VM as I see no point of running an operating system to run an operating system.A straight on dual boot would simplify the whole shebang alot IMO.
