@ Massa
Thanks for your response. It's really incredible that they ship fglrx 12-6 with a major bug. I am in no hurry to unlock XServer 1.12 in the repository so I will wait for an official fix. If I am forced to use fglrx 12-6 I will remember your tip.
Regards,
Andy

It's not fixed, they released the final driver broken on both Ubuntu and Debian 64-bit, despite several user reports after the beta. There's a patch to libpciaccess that works around the bug in the driver, you can see it here: http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=522#c5
That patch worked for me, I'm running Debian wheezy 64-bit.

Is the driver working with Debian 64 bit? The beta driver had a critical error with 64 bit debian based systems in combination with XServer 1.12.

No need to patch.
Just keep your /etc/ati/control from 12.6b
or take this one: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/55728161/control

Incredible that the final version of the driver doesn't work on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit. If they don't support Ubuntu LTS releases, what the heck do they support? At least there's a workaround you can patch in libpciaccess.
Also, suddenly my 6310 adapter comes up as unsupported. I patched the driver to remove that obnoxious watermark, but is there a way to get aticonfig working?

For Ubuntu script should look like this:
#!/bin/sh
DRIVER=/usr/lib/fglrx/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
for x in $(objdump -d $DRIVER|awk '/call/&&/EnableLogo/{print "\\x"$2"\\x"$3"\\x"$4"\\x"$5"\\x"$6}'); do
sed -i "s/$x/\x90\x90\x90\x90\x90/g" $DRIVER
done
These drivers, combined with an appropriate kernel and KDE 4.8.4 allows to operate almost perfectly smooth. However, it should be mentioned that are a little slower than the 12.4 in games such as Nexuiz, Xonotic declines of 1-3 frames/s However, interestingly, their work effects to the user seems smoother, P.
Yet the question of support for kernels 3.4 and 3.5 ... embarrassment here have the whole line ... just you can not build the module for these kernels. It is necessary patching sources. I have tested it under my kernel - a special version for AMD - Llano and Brazos - 3.4.4-ext73-f1-20.0-64-Brazos-ags-cfs

Unsupported hardware. I think something went wrong with this release.
