The ATI drivers after 11.6 have a bug that makes them consume 100% of CPU.
But drivers before 11.7 not work with kernel 3.0+
So I have found a patch:
http://eduard-x.blogspot.com/2011/05/amd-catalyst-115-2639-debian.html
and using 3.1 kernel and 11.6 drivers with this patch on Ubuntu oneiric.
Everything works fine (also spent full day to found this solution).

The direct source of the patch, in English:
http://www.mindwerks.net/2011/04/ubuntu-11-04-natty-with-fglrx-and-2-6-39/

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 (32 bit) Desktop with ADK 2.4 and drivers 11.6 and cgminer. No problems at all. I'd suggest starting from fresh and following closely the Ubuntu headless tutorial here,

(in my case I used 32 bit versions where suitable, and I ran Phoenix for a while before trying and prefering cgminer) This combo works great for me and I wouldn't suggest bothering with newer driver versions as there are generally cpu problems and no advantages afaik.
