Ohh there is also an ati open source driver which I need to try. How do I
remove this proprietary drivers which I installed using debian wiki? I
really don't know.

I am not an expert and in this case I did:
sudo apt-get purge < all the fglrx packages ... >


you need to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and if it contains one part for
fglrx-driver you need to comment it.

it's a boring job :(
