Before fglrx installation:

$ sudo ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules
/usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules -> /etc/alternatives/xorg_extra_modules

$ sudo ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/
total 0

At the "No proprietary drivers are installed on this system. " dialog I
click "Activate" for the ATI/AMD FGLRX graphics driver which has a grey
bubble next to it and is the only option provided.  Dialog in lower
corner says "This driver is not activated" with grey bubble.

Downloading and installing driver.....

Grey bubble in dialog is now replaced with restart circular blue arrow
and dialog "You need to restart the computer to activate this driver."

sudo ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 2010-04-08 19:45 modules
( This looks promising....)

sudo ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/extra-modules/modules/drivers/
total 9120
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9337664 2010-03-30 23:28 fglrx_drv.so

Well it looks like it was installed.  So I now restart the system....
