Bug Description

Hello all,

Please note that I really need help since I'm in very beginer level on Unix!
So, I had a system crush due to graphic card (which I nderstood very late) and I re-install Ubunutu 12.04 lts 64 bits. when installation finished and laptop reboots It says that ther is a problem with cryptswap1 (which I resolved : caused by home folder crypting) and after that my laptop boots on low graphic mode!!! I figured out how to boot by GRUB and tried to fix it! now I am on stage in which I succeeded to boot normally, I followed some steps in some video tutorial which are :

$sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install fglrx
$sudo amdconfig --initial =============> here I got an error : amdconfig: No supported adapters detected
I normally should install gksu after thie step and then reboot my laptop and everything should okay :) but no It has to be difficult!!!
So any help please?
