Hi Amy,
I looked briefly on the ati website for supported hardware on linux
platforms <http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Hardware>, but X1950 doesn't
appear to be listed.  You can also try disabling shadows by updating
shadowTechnique in gazebo_worlds/world/empty.world to "none", i.e.
    <shadowTechnique>none</shadowTechnique>
and see if that helps.
John
