OK, "the reporter is confused" works for me.
Clipped from Xorg.0.log:
[ 43.521] (==) RADEON(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
[ 43.521] (II) RADEON(0): Pixel depth = 24 bits stored in 4 bytes (32 bpp
pixmaps)
[ 43.521] (==) RADEON(0): Default visual is TrueColor
[ 43.521] (==) RADEON(0): RGB weight 888
[ 43.522] (II) RADEON(0): Using 8 bits per RGB (8 bit DAC)
[ 43.522] (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon HD 4350" (ChipID = 0x954f)
So, that's a pretty low-end card, but I like the xscreensavers-extras
that appear to need 3D-acceleration, and I can't seem to get that
working.
NOTE: It was working under Ubuntu-13.04, but it's been an on-and-off.

Title:
fglrx (not installed): fglrx kernel module failed to build
Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
NOT A UBUNTU PROBLEM, JUST MARK IT INVALID!
Emailed suggestions welcome. !!!
I'm trying the AMD Proprietary driver because nothing else seems to work
(either).
I seem to have a Radeon 4000-series card. (A second-hand eMachines box).
Every time I have tried to get xscreensavers-extra working, I create a
configuration that can't even start XWindows.
This failure occurred while running dpkg --install amd-*.deb's from
the AMD site.
