[Bug 871344] [NEW] Jockey cannot install FGLRX (AMD Graphics Driver)

 

Public bug reported:

After installing the latest build of Oneric and updating my system, I am
unable to install the FGLRX driver through jockey.  It simply tells me:

Sorry, installation of this driver failed.
Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log

Because there are two separate drivers, there are two error sections in
my jockey.log.  Please find it attached.

Other relevant information:  
Using a mostly clean system.  I copied my home directory over from 10.10.  
Fully updated to the latest program versions residing on the standard repositories.  
My video card is an AMD Radeon 6670 HD.  

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Turks XT [AMD
Radeon HD 6600 Series]
