Hi! Googling suggests that we need to find a suitable /etc/ati/control file.

a) Can you confirm that the "problem" with your card is that it is too
new, not too old?
b) Can you make sure that /etc/ati/control is the same as the one
shipped in the 11-5 package? To do this, first extract the fglrx-driver
package in a dir of your choosing. Then copy the
${dirname}/etc/ati/control file to /etc/ati/control. Reboot the xserver.

If the card is too old we have to use an /etc/ati/control from an old
driver instead.

If the card is too new, and if the above does not work, we will probably
have to wait for a more recent driver to be released.
