Bug Description
Binary package hint: fglrx-driver
After installing the fglrx driver, I modprobed it. It failed and I got error messages:
[17188102.444000] fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
[17188102.448000] [fglrx] Maximum main memory to use for locked dma buffers: 929 MBytes.
[17188102.448000] [fglrx:
The reason was that the radeon driver was still loaded. Maybe it would be better to unload it if the fglrx driver got installed or even prevent it from being loaded again?

The driver manager proposes a reboot, which takes care of this.
