I just spent a few hour trying to install proprietary drivers on my (old) laptop for my (old) graphic card.
If the following configuration talks to you, then I might help you :-)
- Ubuntu 12.04.02
- Kernel version 3.5.0-32-generic
- ATI Radeon 2600 graphic card
Since the last kernel update, unable to install Catalyst 13.1 drivers. dpkg creation is successful, but when trying to install those dpkg I am getting a bad exception when fglrx is installing.
After a while I found some 13.4 Catalyst drivers. Installation goes smoothier, but in the end...
aticonfig: No supported adapters detected
Arrrgh ! They dropped support for 2600 series in this version !
Only solution that worked for me :

Hope this help !

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.5.
DKMS part of installation failed. Please refer to /usr/share/ati/fglrx-install.log for details
Same result with the graphic installer of course.
