this is the message i get when trying to run system-config-display after installing it

File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 378, in <module>
    dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, videocard.VideoCardInfo())
  File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 640, in __init__
    if len(self.xconfig.layout[0].adjacencies) > 1:
IndexError: index out-of-bounds

i now know that i have an ATI Radeon x300 video card, do I have to get drivers for this first?  Is this card particularly problematic, again i appreciate the help as i am very new to this linux thing.

thanks
matt

I installed system config display from the terminal.  Now I have a
"display" icon in the administration menu however when I click on it I
get a message that says " a crash in package system-config-display has
been detected"

Thoughts?
