The launcher script "/usr/lib/fglrx/bin/amdxdg-su" tests for various
desktop environments to determine which sudo front-end to use. The text
for Xfce works but there is not a corresponding case statement operation
that utilizes the result for Xfce. This modified snippet works by using
the Gnome response:
case "$DE" in
kde)
su_kde
;;
gnome)
su_gnome
;;
xfce)
su_gnome
;;
generic)
su_consolehelper
;;
*)
[ x"$user" = x"" ] && user=root
exit_failure_operation_impossible "no graphical method available for
invoking '$cmd' as '$user'"
;;
esac

Title:
"AMD Catalyst Control Center (Administrative)" Shortcut Does Nothing
Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Using Xubuntu 12.04 and FGLRX Propritary Driver
The shortcut that the Ubuntu supplied driver installs to give root
access to the AMD Catalyst Control Center does nothing. The shortcut
is set to
amdxdg-su -c amdcccle
which when typed in a terminal gives this
amdxdg-su: no graphical method available for invoking 'amdcccle' as
'root'
The shortcut just needs to be changed to something like
gksudo amdcccle
