Ok guys, stop fighting. Before changing anything, lets establish the facts. According to Sean's lspci in bug 1075035 he has a:
VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV770 [FireStream 9250] [1002:9452] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Device [1002:0502]
Thats the same ASIC as used in the Radeon HD 4000 series cards - eg. see the description in bug 1071101. It is probably hooked up to a different BIOS but Sean's experience seems to show that it is indeed unsupported by the fglrx driver, despite AMD's claims in the Catalyst 12.11 Beta release notes.
