For Gutsy, I've packaged a newer fglrx: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/

Don't know if it will fix this issue, but if you're on Gutsy, you might want to try it.

There are no plans to add fglrx 8.37.6 to Feisty officially, but I've
created .debs for Feisty users needing this fix. These are available
at http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/fglrx-8.37.6-Feisty/
Despite being unofficial, please feel welcome to report new bugs with
these packages to launchpad.

Same problem here (X1600). Since Feisty no fglrx works for me - neither the drivers installed by the restricted-manager nor the manually installed drivers from the amd/ati-website.
