As from personal experience , I had my install working with the Catalyst Driver at one time , then reinstalled my distro because of experiments that went south big time , I just did a fresh reinstall then tried the newest Catalyst Driver & screwed the install again because of it , now I m with Obiaf PPA but it s on the bleading edge so to speak , so not recommended for stable lts installs , but for me , it doesn t matter much , used to be with either Aptosid , Siduction , Semplice , so it was a ride . lol

Here s some response from amd itself : http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.c...did=182221

Also have a look at Scott s link above .

This might solve the issue , but still another bleeding edge ubuntu ppa , but had no issue with : https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

I can t say that their wont be any issues as always .

I did it that way : open Synaptic , then in Synaptic you get to Settings on top of window ! s , click on it , go to Repositories , click on Other Softwares on top again , then add this repo in it :


deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu trusty main

Press on Close on buttom right of window .

then refresh repo , Mark Upgrade then Apply . Should be good . After that I would reboot .
