Following the AMD decision to drop support for older hardware fglrx-installer will install non-working drivers for some users.
I suggest the addition of an fglrx-legacy package to install the AMD legacy drivers for users with older cards.

!!!!!!!! WARNING !!!!!!!
The following workaround has produced mixed results and left some users with temporarily broken systems. It is not recommended for production systems or novice users that are not comfortable with basic console/non-GUI recovery. USE AT OWN RISK.
WORKAROUND: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:makson96/fglrx && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install fglrx-legacy
This workaround will downgrade X to 1.12 and install the AMD legacy fglrx 8.97 (Catalyst 12.6). |

Following the AMD decision to change to a new driver support model for Radeon™ HD 4000, HD 3000 and HD 2000 series cards as per http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/legacy-radeon_linux.aspx , fglrx-installer installs non-working drivers.
NOTE: All AMD cards based on R(V)6x0 and R(V)7x0 chips are affected. This includes some FirePro/FireGL/FireStream products as well as certain RadeonHD5x00 mobility parts which are rebadged RadeonHD4x00 parts. If unsure, please consult http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units
I suggest the addition of an fglrx-legacy package to install the AMD legacy drivers for users with older cards or patch the current code base for use with these cards.

The following workaround has produced mixed results and left some users with temporarily broken systems. It is not recommended for production systems or novice users that are not comfortable with basic console/non-GUI recovery. USE AT OWN RISK.
WORKAROUND: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:makson96/fglrx && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install fglrx-legacy
This workaround will downgrade X to 1.12 and install the AMD legacy fglrx 8.97 (Catalyst 12.6). |
Following the AMD decision to change to a new driver support model for Radeon™ HD 4000, HD 3000 and HD 2000 series cards as per http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/legacy-radeon_linux.aspx , fglrx-installer installs non-working drivers.
I suggest the addition of an fglrx-legacy package to install the AMD legacy drivers for users with older cards or patch the current code base for use with these cards.

One of the outstanding issues for addressing this bug is AMD currently does not plan to support XServer 1.13 (for Ubuntu the package is xserver-xorg-core) for the legacy 12.6 driver, which Quantal uses:
