With the last command before reboot, I'm getting:

Code:

user@box:~$ sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=allUnable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver.
aticonfig: No supported adapters detected

If I use Ubuntu's Additional Drivers utility, it will see the adapter but the platform needs to be specified and attempting to mine sends it into a frenzy of errors.

Any suggestions?

Instead of sudo apt-get install fglrx

try this:

cd ~
sudo aptitude install dkms
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/natty
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo reboot

Same problem

Code:

user@box:~$ sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo: aticonfig: command not found
user@box:~$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/fglrx/bin/aticonfig /etc/alternatives/aticonfig
user@box:~$ sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/aticonfig /usr/bin/aticonfig user@box:~$ sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=allUnable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver.
