Bug description:
  ..can't remove fglrx.   Trying to access GPUCAPS on Win7 disk
  (partition) using wine 1.2 so I can check the GPU card using CAPS

  (which by the way gave me the first real test of my GPU  ~ HD Radeon
  4850.)  I am having issues using any of the resources from

  the ATI sites, NVIDIA sites, and AMD sites using Ubuntu (both 10.04 on
  CAELinux and 12.10 on Ubuntu Server.)

  Email my consulting address:  specialsystems@xxxxxxxxxxx

  thanks guys

  [Warning] Uninstall : inst_path_default or inst_path_override
   does not exist in /etc/ati.  This suggests that the AMD driver
   is not installed, the AMD driver is only partially installed,
   or the current AMD driver installed is an older version than the
   one this script was designed for.  Both files listed above are
   required for determining where installed files are located.
   To force uninstallation of the driver by guessing where the
   uninstallation files are located, set the force option
   re-run /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh (this is not recommended).
