wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/amd-driver-installer-12-1-x86.x86_64.run
sh amd-driver-installer-12-1-x86.x86_64.run
Then choose to build package for your detected distribution. Then you can install the .deb package with
sudo dpkg -i fglrx_8.930-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-amdcccle_8.930-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb fglrx-dev_8.930-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
