I've exactly the same problem. Ubuntu 14.04 all updated. Tried fglrx,
fglrx-updates an Catalyst 14.12 Omega from AMD homepage. All versions
segfault on boot. Only the open source driver runs fine out of the box.
But playing highend games with the open source driver is not possible.
Performance too low :-(

My hardware: Lenovo G500 Core i5 and Radeon HD 8670A/8670M/8750M.
Please help!
