Well, the ATI drivers were provided by Ubuntu under the "Restricted 
Drivers" menu.  As for the capture card drivers, I didn't do anything 
with them.  I thought the kernel had the proper DVB and V4L drivers 
already.  I'm using an ATI X1200 Radeon integrated card.  Here's my 
xorg.conf if you're interested:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier   "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
    Option        "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
    Option        "ModelName" "Generic Autodetecting Monitor"
    Option        "DPMS" "true"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
    Driver      "fglrx"
    BusID       "PCI:1:5:0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier "aticonfig-Screen[0]-0"
    Device     "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
    Monitor    "aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0"
    DefaultDepth     24
    SubSection "Display"
        Viewport   0 0
        Depth     24
    EndSubSection
EndSection

When I try to run the ATI installer package, I get:
Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version
default:v2:x86_64:lib32::none:2.6.27-7-generic; make sure that the 
version is being
correctly set by --iscurrentdistro

Am I just screwed?
Thanks,
Harry
