I have install Ubuntu 11.10 64bit on my Hp Dv6-3150el. My Notebook has two graphics cards:

lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: 
 Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: 
 ATI Technologies Inc Madison [AMD Radeon HD 5000M Series]

I tried to install the proprietary graphics drivers ''fglrx'' available in "Additional Drivers", which does not give me 3D graphics acceleration (and I can't install those post-release).
Then I can try to download and install from the website (I tried the version that Catalyst 11.8 11.12).
The installation goes perfectly (I followed this guide and others), except that when I configure Xorg.conf file:

sudo aticonfig --initial
PowerXpress error: Cannot stat '/usr/lib64/fglrx': No such file or directory
Failed to initialize libglx for discrete GPU
