Sean Fitzpatrick, so here is AMD's official response: All Workstation products including FireStream have been removed from Catalyst drivers starting 2013. We have a separate driver for Workstation products. I have instructed our web team to make the corrections. For FireStream 9250 you can either

Dave Lentz, this report is not the same as bug 1058040 as the scope of 1058040 is HD2000-4000 series cards, and a Firestream 9250 is not a part of that series. As well, as per AMD, a fix for HD2000-4000 series cards in Ubuntu 12.10+ is not planned, and the newest release available for those cards
