So i gave up on fglrx driver due to unsupported GPUs now i'm on regular radeon drivers with 4 monitors on 14.04. I got them all to work perfectly fine with All Settings/Displays mirror mode but when if i try to uncheck Mirrored Display i get "The selected configuration for displays could not be applied/could not set the configuration for CRTC 64" pop up error and either both monitors 3&4 just freeze with last image, or 3 works but 4 just goes black with no signal

It looks like a bug (perhaps related to CRTC sharing). AMD's open source GPU driver team are, from what I've heard, responsive to bug reports. You can find the bug tracker and mailing lists at http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeon/ - they also have an IRC channel #radeon on irc.freenode.net for radeon users and developers. I just saw a comment today about one of their open source developers fixing a bug in 15 minutes after it was reported on the IRC channel, so I'd recommend trying that or the mailing lists.
