Ubuntu DVD = Alternate CD + Live CD + Additional WM (KDE, XFCE) + "main" component repository software.

I hope Ati fglrx drivers are there for 3d in linux.

ATI Xpress 200m chipset used to be problematic. But with the release of new drivers things are fine. You will need to download and install the new ATi drivers for full OpenGL support (3D effects to work).
