I've installed and run Ubuntu 13.04 with one and two AMD 5970 card using
the default install just fine. Both Mesa and Catalyst drivers display
with this card. Without system information and reproducible steps it is
not possible to triage this at this time.

Title:
Radeon HD 5970 does not work on 13.04
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Installed a new installation of Ubuntu 13.04 (64bits) and my Radeon HD
5970 does not work. The "start bar" does not appear and the desktop
only has a "home folder" icon and a very basic right menu button.
Already tried forcing the fglrx driver using jockey-text, but after
booting says "AMD unsupported hardware"
Perhaps I can try installing by hand the catalyst driver, but IMHO it
is a bug if does not work right from the box.
