Eh, I'll just tell you what I did.

Install fglrx using the one that comes from ATI.
cd /dev; MAKEDEV dri (this step is critical)
Add the following options to the "device" section of your Xorg.conf:

Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "EnableMonitor" "lvds" (if you have a LCD)
Option "mtrr" "on"
Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "yes"
Option "UseFastTLS" "2"

And it should work.  Worked for me, anyway.  I have an HD 4650.
