Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I'm also seeing this after both an upgrade, then a purge & reinstall.

[Olcay Korkmaz (olci)]

I fixed with

sudo apt-get purge fglrx*
sudo update-alternatives --remove-all x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx
sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates
