Bug Description
I installed fglrx via jockey (Alternative Drivers).
On reboot I got the message that X was running in low graphics mode.
Looking at the xserver log I can see there was a crash in fglrx_drv.so.
I tried fglrx-updates and it had the same crash.
I am running Ubuntu 14.04 x64 with the latest updates installed.
My GPU is a new PCI-Express Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD5450 model GV-R545-1GI with 1GB VRAM.
My motherboard is Asus H81M-E with BIOS version.
I have an Intel Celeron G1850 CPU at 2.8GHz.
I have 2x8GB of GSkill DDR301600 memory model F3-1600C11S-8GNT.

Google has several hits for swlDrmAllocateO ffscreenMem+ 0xe so it looks like I am not the only one finding this crash.
Can fglrx-updates be switched to a newer driver release? Perhaps ATI have fixed this crash in a later version.
