Title:
  Alternative video driver (fglrx) is not being saved as a selection
  choice

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello. I can't select and save the proprietary drivers in the
  "Software and Updates" in the "Additional Drivers" section. It allows
  me to select using a proprietary driver, but when I click "Apply
  Changes," it jumps right back to the X Org X server option.

  I've also tried "sudo apt-get install fglrx" and some variants thereof, but end up getting a response back such as :
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree       
  Reading state information... Done
  Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
  requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
  distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
  or been moved out of Incoming.
  The following information may help to resolve the situation:

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   fglrx : Depends: xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable or
                    xorg-video-abi-12 but it is not installable or
