C'mon Rashkae, if you're going to make a joke then give some assistance

Rafael,

You need a 3d capable video card and the drivers (usually restricted, 
nvidia,ati) for that card. Have a read here:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia

or here,

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI

depending on the make of your card.

Dave
