Title:
  Jockey failed to properly install fglrx driver ("post-release
  updates"): "Sorry, installation of this driver failed"

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have tried to install the fglrx proprietary driver, when Jockey failed after downloading it with the following error dialog:
  """
  Sorry, installation of this driver failed.
  Please have a look at the log for details: /var/log/jockey.log
  """

  Installing the normal (non-"post-release updates") driver/variant
  worked.

  The tail of the error log is:

  2011-11-17 10:29:49,149 WARNING: /sys/module/fglrx_updates/drivers does not exist, cannot rebind fglrx_updates driver

  I am attaching a screenshot of Jockey after the fact and the whole
  log.
