Hello Elena,

I'm sorry to hear about the trouble of getting the ATI card to work under 
Linux. Because these have been a pain to get to work under Linux we have 
been recommending NVidia cards for a long time. Without knowing anything 
about your computer its difficult to suggest a particular model, but 
virtually all contemporary models will do.
Did you try using the closed source driver from ATI for the card you 
presently have ? The opensource ones that come with your distribution 
might not work as expected.
