There is no source code available for your backport, also the version
number is not bpo'ished.

The third problem would be, that we need the allownes of one of the
backports-ftp-masters to upload a slighty modified package which is not
in testing. The changes of fglrx 11-4 => 11-6 and xorg multiarch support
are just to big:

me at gnu:~/Coding/fglrx/fglrx-driver$ diff -Naur tags/11-4-2/debian
trunk/debian --exclude=.svn|diffstat|tail -n 1
 48 files changed, 1054 insertions(+), 1332 deletions(-)


So please upload a correct version with source code (dget'able) and then
I can diff through the changes and say, if it is correct, after that
ftp-masters have to decide.
