Ok, so I went to the amd page and downloaded the installer from them.
As normal user i run:
$ ./ati-driver-installer-8-6-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Debian/lenny

And it yields:
----

Also tried as root with no luck (same error).

I googled around a bit and all I could find was people with the
"Permission denied" error because they forgot to give 755 permissions to
the installer.
