Step 1: remove the old driver

If you used xgl before, run the following command to remove the old fglrx driver.

Sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl

Go to "System"-"System Management"-"restricted driver manager" to cancel the previous driver, or you can execute:

Sudo apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx

Finally, delete the old fglrx package.

Sudo rm-f/usr/src/fglrx-kernel *. deb

Add the old fglrx module to the blacklist

Sudo gedit/etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common

Add such a line

DISABLED_MODULES = "fglrx"

Alternatively, you can remove this linux-restricted-modules-* package (if you have other restricted drivers, do not do this)

After the removal, restart it!
