hi chris =)  i fear the how to for the link re trusty proposed is beyond
my geekling skills. it seems written for someone with more terminal
knowledge than i have...

i follow step one, click trusty proposed, but the second step has all
these options. i'm very confused. and have never created a file before,
do i use sudo before? is there a how to for dummies? lol. i can do that!
i've done terminal how tos form the forums but they were very 'do
exactly this'.

ok in step two, can i do just this? they put it at bottom of that section 
"Alternatively, you can use apt-get to install a package from -proposed by using

sudo apt-get install packagename/trusty-proposed

This method uses a higher priority to install packages. "

if so exactly what package should i put in?

and the section re enable apport...that seems optional? if not way
beyond me.

Title:
  Failed to upgrade fglrx from 14.502 to 15.200 on Trusty.

Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in fglrx-installer-updates package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in fglrx-installer source package in Trusty:

Status in fglrx-installer-updates source package in Trusty:

Bug description:
  SRU Request:

  [Impact]

  Upgrading from the upstream fglrx driver packages to the packages in
  the Ubuntu repository fails because the /etc/ati directory is a real
  directory instead of being a link (which was common in the Ubuntu
  packages).

  [Test Case]
  1. Install the fglrx driver (14.502) in Ubuntu 14.04 generating deb packages from the AMD installer 
  2. Upgrade the package to the current ubuntu release.
  3. Check the apt-get output 

  Expected results: the fglrx module should be updated correctly.

  Actual results:
  The update fails as described below.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. The change only affects a migration from a specific release.

  
  ______________________________________
  Note that the fglrx 14.502 package name is fglrx_14.502-0ubuntu1_amd64_UB_14.01.deb, which is from AMD's site, not from Ubuntu repository.
