Ubuntu 14.04 will not work for me either. Tried every way possible.
Upgrading to 14.10 and probably 15.04 as soon as it's released.

Should we just accept this will never be fixed, at least not for AMD and
14.04 ?

Title:
  fglrx drivers not working after upgrading to ubuntu 14.04

Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I was on ubuntu 13.10 and was using manually installed amd beta graphics driver. Mfter y system has a hybrid Intel hd4400 and AMD Radeon 8670M graphics card. After upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 it booted to black screen. On tty1 I tried to run fglrxinfo , it returned "Command not found"
  Then I did 
  sudo apt-get -purge fglrx*
  sudo reboot
  after rebooting got the same problem
  tried to install the same driver
  using 
  sudo ./amd-driver-installer-13.35.1005-x86.x86_64.run 
  and followed the instruction, then got an error msg "installation failed"
  tried manually building and installing, first it failed, then using Synaptic packet manager I fixed broken packages then tried to install , it installed , but on
  sudo aticonfig --initial
  it says unable to find command aticonfig
  rebooted again and ran
  fglrxinfo
  again unable to find command.
