I think these errors are false positives. There is a list of paths
searched for fglrx_dri.so and reporting the ones that don't contain it
as an error is just stupid ...
The next path in the list is /usr/lib/dri and the file is symlinked
there. (You could try to move the symlink away from there and should see
more errors and maybe a final one if the library could not be found
ultimately.)

Also this very much looks like a success:

Regarding your blank screen problem - I have no idea what could fix this.
