I noticed in another bug report that you want to use fglrx because you
can't get HDMI sound with the open-source driver.
On kernels prior to 3.13 you can enable Radeon HDMI audio by adding
radeon.audio=1 to your GRUB kernel boot options as described at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting#Editing_the_GRUB_2_Menu_During_Boot
With the 3.13 kernel the radeon.audio=1 kernel boot option is no longer
necessary. Instead, HDMI audio on ATI/AMD Radeon cards can be enabled
and disabled on the fly by typing the following in a terminal window:
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio on
or
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio off
If your HDMI port is numbered differently (type "xrandr" to check) - you
might need to change HDMI-0 in the above command to HDMI-1 or HDMI-2.
Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" currently has the 3.13.0-12.32 kernel. If
you want to try and install the 3.13 kernel on an earlier Ubuntu
release, a PPA is available at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/ and instructions on how to install and uninstall it are
available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds

Title:
1002:9591 Unity does not start after installing fglrx x64 drivers
Mobility Radeon HD 3650
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Apport: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1259709
Description: After installing ATI proprietary drivers for my Radeon video
card, Unity or GNOME ( I tried both) don't start anymore. LightDM shows up, and
I'm able to log in, but after logging in the screen goes black, pauses and then
I'm presented with the lightDM login screen again. Xserver logs indicate that
the driver fglrx does not load. To duplicate:
1) Download
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/legacy/amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64.zip
Note: Catalyst 13.1 is the version AMD recommends for Mobility Radeon HD 3650
2) sudo sh ./amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13.1-legacy-linux-x86.x86_64.run
--buildpkg Ubuntu/saucy
3) sudo dpkg -i *.deb
4) sudo aticonfig --initial -f
(have also tried various combinations of this including --xinerama=[on|off] )
5) reboot and then try to login.
WORKAROUND: Reverting to the opensource version gets things working again
E.g. To get back to things working I have to run:
sudo dpkg --purge fglrx fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-dev && sudo apt-get install
xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-radeon
