I am running Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit and I have an ATI X1650 Pro 512mb but there are no drivers for my video card in the restricted drivers. How can I install drivers?

Unfortunately, the ATI x1650 is no longer supported by AMD/ATI's binary drivers; neither the "restricted" ones nor what you can download off their website.
The last binary driver package supporting this card is Catalyst 9.3; you can try downloading and installing it. If it doesn't work (due to kernel changes), sorry, but you're stuck with the default open-source radeon
driver.
This isn't because of Linux/Ubuntu, but due to AMD/ATI policy; for example, there are no Windows 7 drivers available for the X1650 either!
