Does not work.  The "ATI Driver Installer" from 
http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html checks for 
the Xorg version, and refuses if the version is higher than 7.3... which 
is weird because the website says "Drivers for X.Org 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, 7.0, 
7.1, 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4".

<quote src=./fglrx-install.XXXXXX/check.sh >
  # XOrg 7.2 or lower has not been detected, try to detect XOrg 7.3
  # We don't want to detect and run on anything higher than XOrg 7.3

  # and we want to know that we need to test the driver if there is a 
major change
