Jacob: I can't guarantee this will work, but here's what I think does the
trick: open up synaptic (System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager), in
the quicksearch bar type 'ati', and for each of the following, if there is a
green box beside the entry, right click and mark for complete removal:
xserver-xorg-video-ati
xserver-xorg-video-radeon
fglrx-kernel-source
xorg-driver-fglrx
fglrx-amdcccle
fglrx-modaliases
xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd
(anything else that has the word fglrx, ati, radeon, or radeonhd in it)
open the terminal and type sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-
amdcccle
make sure your xorg.conf (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) looks something like this:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "fglrx"
EndSection
and reboot your computer.
Bryce:
Sorry I didn't reply before. I wasn't able to reproduce the bug after I fixed
it, and didn't get around to responding. Anyway I've since reinstalled from CD,
and haven't run into it.

fglrx works, but window moving/resizing and scrolling are very, very slow;
desktop effects don't work
