[Tony Mugan <856312@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In a fresh install of Oneiric, I had a dual screen setup with 3D capability adequate for compiz effects.
Then I tried fglrx but had issues with the dual monitor setup and setting resolutions with amdcccle so I uninstalled fglrx.

However, it seems that there are some after effects of having had fglrx
installed which mean some packages need to be reinstalled.

These steps got me back to a clean dual monitor setup with the free
radeon driver for both a radeon 5870 and a 5770.
