Become root; enter "dpkg -i <path_to>fglrx-control_8.31.5-1_amd64.deb".

This assumes that you have an AMD 64-bit processor (and the kernel for
it); it also assumes there are no extra packages needed for the deb.

Better yet would be to install it through the more normal installation
method:

  aptitude install fglrx-control

although it's an older version (8.28.8, in Sid). This method should take
care of any extra packages needed.
