Thanks for your guidance on this issue. I normally use the kubuntu forum but I did find a way to get my desktop going. The web address and the procedure that I followed with Tribe 3 is:
http://www.mikesplanet.net/2007/04/installing-ubuntu-704-ati-x-cards/ This quick guide will get Feisty installed and X.org 7.2 up and running. 1. Boot using PC (Intel x86) alternate install CD for Ubuntu or Kubuntu. 2. Start text mode installer and install Ubuntu/Kubuntu. 3. Finish Install and reboot. 4. Update package list and upgrade any packages needed. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade 5. Install fglrx closed source driver for ATI video cards. sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx 6. Update loaded modules. sudo depmod -a 7. Configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf sudo aticonfig --initial sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv 8. Reboot All I have to do now is get sound which seems to be a major problem at this stage and also get my notebook connected to the wireless network which uses a Netgear Wireless Router WGR614. I am currently spending all my spare time to resolve the problems.
