I have the bug with 14.04 Trusty. Using vino on server side (and remmina as client),
test between two machines in LAN.

With fglrx installed on the server, the image does not update at all.

When switching back to X.org driver : the image is updated on the client
side but very slowly. (Window movements initiated from the client are
also slow to display on the server's screen)

I installed the Catalyst control center (fglrx-admcccle 2:13)
and in admin mode I activated the "no tear" mode as suggested above. Now it works fine. Thank you.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: vino

  Vino, the built in VNC server in Ubuntu, has had a problem for many
  releases where it won't update the display when connected remotely if
  compositing is enabled.

  I honestly don't know why it was shipped with this version since
  compositing is now required and enabled by default, but Vino doesn't
  work if compositing is enabled.

  After upgrading to Natty there is no user-facing way to disable
  compositing, so the built-in remote control application is now
  completely useless.

  This is a core functionality of a desktop operating system and it has
  been broken in Ubuntu for several major releases ( see bug 353126
  which was opened on 2009-4-1).

  If if it's not a core functionality to everyone and that's just my
  opinion, it doesn't make any sense to ship a desktop OS with a broken
  remote control service. I don't know of any other desktop OS that
  ships with a remote desktop functionality that is completely broken
  out of the box.
