The problem is caused by the Xorg Server version in kali rolling.

We need to downgrade it to 1.18.4-2 version and the latest fglrx driver version 15.9 should install.

The package we need to install is at https://pkg.kali.org/news/276616

However, it does not appear to be in the repo's as apt-get -t=1.18.4-2 install xorg-server fails with no sources available.

Can someone tell me how to downgrade the xorg server in kali rolling please?

Kind Regards
