This happens every time Ubuntu updates their kernel and/or Xorg version
and leaves the old fglrx driver in place that was never designed to work
with those new X.org and kernel versions.

Maybe one way to save users this kind of trouble in the future would be
to add versioned dependencies to fglrx to make it conflict with kernel
or X.org versions newer than what was in the last stable Ubuntu release.
This way, if a user explicitly or implicitly updates their X.org or
kernel to a new major version, they'd be forced to uninstall fglrx
first.
