Installation with the alternate installer CD succeeded in installing the
system, but required manual intervention to get the fglrx card working.
This was the same situation I faced with Feisty on this hardware.

Steps I took after installing Gutsy and receiving a failed Xorg:
Ctrl+Alt+(Fn+F1) and log in on the console.
# sudo aptitude update
# sudo aptitude upgrade
# sudo aptitude install xorg-drivers-fglrx
# sudo aticonfig --initial
# sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
# sudo reboot now

Upon reboot GDM loaded the login screen, the display finally worked.
