If you still experience this error, make sure the kernel headers are installed with this command:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

We're closing this bug since there has not been a response from the original reporter. However, the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. If you're not the original reporter, we'd prefer you file a new bug report.

Some tips:

  * Report X.org bugs via the command: `ubuntu-bug xorg`

  * Test against the latest development Ubuntu. http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/
    Bugs marked as affecting the development version tend to get priority attention.

  * The `xdiagnose` utility has functionality for enabling debugging and
    analyzing a few common X problems.

  * Tag your bugs with the Ubuntu versions you have reproduced the issue in.

  * See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Reporting for tips on writing good bug reports.

@vanvugt: why did you dust off this bug report after it was expired for more than a year?

[Daniel Letzeisen (dtl131)]

Oh, I see. I'm not sure this is the exact same bug. The newer bug has additional errors:
make.sh: 390: [: 1: unexpected operator
make.sh: 396: [: 1: unexpected operator

If it is the same bug, I find it more helpful to mark the old bug as a duplicate of the newer one if the older one does not contain important discussion.

[Expired for fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Confirmed by a new duplicate.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

If you'd rather redirect and point at a newer bug for this, be my guest.
