Default Last but not least

Well people ,
Linux is amazing Ubuntu is sexy and I love the UI and programs that are pre-installed with it . I just have one problem I can't get my GFX to install , I used this guide which also tells you how to install your GFX and get WoW running. How To: Run World Of Warcraft (WoW) in Linux Using Wine | fsckin w/ linux

When I test out the rendering command I get a NO and (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set) , what does that mean and how do i fix it ?

Beryl theme i think its called where there is a 3d desktop and wiggly windows , how do I install it ? ( I need a step-by-step cause i'm such a noob)

Thanks,
Preacher

I haven't used it for ati drivers, only nvidia, but try a program called Envy. It downloads the drivers (ati and nvidia) from their official websites and installs them for you. You should try it out.
