The fglrx proprietary driver supports XRandR 1.2, so the Displays capplet will (should) work for it.

The nvidia binary driver does *not* support XRandR 1.2, so (as Daniel notes) the Displays capplet will not work properly (specifically, it won't do any multihead or external display setup) with the nvidia binary driver.
