Yes, the Linux 3.6 kernel finally enabled Radeon PCI Express 2.0 support by

Sorry but we cannot introduce a driver in Quantal if it doesn't support
Quantal's xserver ABI (1.13). There is nothing we can do if at AMD they

OK Ken, from reading comment #3 in bug 1113331 I can see that you had
fglrx-updates installed on Precise and dist-upgraded to Quantal. So you
are in fact hitting this bug. Sorry about that. You may wish to try
the open-source drivers on Quantal - they are continuing to improve in
performance.
I'm on Precise. I installed fglrx-updates which, for some reason, has
had this broken version backported to Precise's fglrx-updates, but you
would expect that from fglrx-updates I guess.
fglrx itself has problems and I described my workaround to that at
