We cannot autoinstall the fglrx driver on a per device base. Either we
install it for all the supported AMD cards, or we don't. The latter is
our current policy. The open radeon driver usually works well enough
(hence we use it by default).
LP: #1323967 simply shows that the system is using software rendering.
This means that probably the open 3D driver that we ship doesn't support
that GPU.
Please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of dmesg in that bug
report and let's try to fix that bug instead.
I'm marking this as "won't fix".

I've tried to use fglrx driver which works good on this system,
ubuntu-drivers should be able to provide autoinstall the "Video driver
