Comment 23 for bug 63912

Proposed fix (not sure if this is the *proper* way to do this): add fglrx on a separate line to /etc/modules. Mine looks like this now, and seems to have solved the issue:

-- START --
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

lp
fglrx
-- END --

My guess is this change to /etc/modules needs to be implemented through the linux-restricted-drivers package (post-install script?), assuming this is the proper way to do this (just because it works doesn't mean that it's the right way to accomplish something).
