The XFree86 driver is not (or improperly) installed. Here's an excerpt 
from my log that shows the module being located and loaded:

[...]
(II) LoadModule: "fglrx"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o
(II) Module fglrx: vendor="Fire GL - ATI Research GmbH, Germany"
        compiled for 4.2.0, module version = 2.9.6
        Module class: XFree86 Video Driver
        ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.5
(II) LoadModule: "mouse"
[...]

Please make sure that the fglrx-driver package is installed.
The following command will tell you:
  dpkg -s fglrx-driver

If it says it is installed, please check if 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o exists and is readable.
For version 2.9.6 it should be 269378 bytes in size.

I wonder why you didn't ask me (in italiano, se preferisci) before 
asking the list, as it's unlikely that anyone in here knows about my 
packages better than I do. ;)
