ATI radeon hd 3650. I tried to switch to ubuntu months ago but I had troubles installing the graphics card and for some reason my processor ran too hot the experience became so sluggish. I think I tried to install it using a driver utility that was preinstalled in ubuntu. I googled around but all I got is commands and I didn't want to learn new stuff just to install the driver honestly, that's why I use an iphone lolz.

I also will consider ubuntu phones when it's out, the swipe gestures are lovely. No buttons? nom nom nom.


They launched a new version in October and that (or the updates before it) may have fixed the issue. AMD drivers usually are a little slow in fixing problems. The driver utility is the way to go when installing graphics driver. You can try to use the default driver too that comes with Ubuntu (it has 3D acceleration and all the stuff, but is a bit weaker in performance that the official one from AMD that the driver utility installs. Anyway, it works good enough if you aren't thinking about heavy gaming on it).

The swipe gestures are great, I've a BlackBerry PlayBook, that uses the same concept and it works great. Is really more elegant to use and better tha use buttons for the majority of the tasks.
