well reinstalled the box today, and everything works:)
Not sure what was the problem, but a reinstall solved it.
thanks!

It's an xorg issue, have you tried:
Code:
$ sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --initial -f
If you haven't run the above 'aticonfig' command yet it's required to populate xorg.conf file before running miners and GPU.
If using a USB flash drive, then:
Code:
$ sudo sync
(not required if installed to a hard drive.)

Reboot the system:
Code:
$ sudo reboot
or
Code:
$ sudo shutdown -r now

Did you follow an install guide? Which one?

Could you run:
Code:
$ apt-cache showpkg fglrx
It should return information about which version of fglrx is installed, example:
Code:
Package: fglrx
Versions:
2:8.*-0ubuntu4 (
The * would be the version of fglrx installed.
