How to properly install Radeon drivers for Sid



Hi everyone.

I have an ultra wide monitor that supports 2560x1080. 
While I have a Radeon 5450 graphic card, running Debian Sid, I only can get 1920x1080. 
I installed firmware-linux-nonfree to get it running. So why isn't my complete resolution listed?
Also I experience some glitches while watching videos.

I have to mention that I can't install the proprietary driver from AMD website because of the following error:

<code>
    make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.5.0-2-amd64'
      CC [M]  /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/firegl_public.o

         len = seq_printf(m, "%d\n", major);
             ^

           if (!(fpu->state.xsave.header.xfeatures & XSTATE_FP))
