Comecei a atualizar a distro de 13.04 a 13.10. Então coloquei em minhas mãos uma Radeon HD 2600.
Instalei o Catalystdriver compatível com RV630 da página oficial.
Então o xserver travava toda vez que eu abria um navegador ou vlc fx.
Percebi que não havia nenhum driver listado na configuração abaixo.

eu instalei drivers adicionais do jockey e do ubuntu softwarecenter ati-driver. embora isso só tenha causado o travamento completo do xserver e quando eu digito:

Isto é o que vem, mas sem GUI.
Existe alguma maneira de lidar com isso?

Se não estou errado, o kernel usado pelo Ubuntu 13.10 (3.11) não suporta mais os drivers Catalyst proprietários legados da AMD. Sua única opção agora é usar o driver radeon de código aberto que vem com o Ubuntu. Ele já deve oferecer desempenho decente (~80%) e consumo de energia em comparação com o driver Catalyst.
Para corrigir o problema, você precisa desinstalar o driver Catalyst:
sudo apt-get purge fglrx
Se por algum motivo você realmente precisar do driver proprietário, este link pode ajudar:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2181190&p=12823425#post12823425
