Rafael: thanks for reporting. What driver version are you using? I installed successfully Catalyst 9.5 from AMD's site, and now I upgraded to 9.6. I built the Ubuntu/9.04 drivers and then installed them all (you can pass --help to the installer and it explains how to build packages for your distro)
