Recently I did a "clean" install of Ubuntu 14.10 and I had everything running fine, using my AMD Radeon HD 6630M as the default graphics card, without issue (I have one of those stupid dual-graphics cards setups).
But when I was having problems with the HDMI output (the screen flickering and the entire desktop off-center), I thought it might be a driver issue, so I changed my video card to the Intel card using Catalyst... Then everything went pear-shaped.
Now, I cannot access System Settings at all - it just changes the mouse/touchpad cursor to the "loading" variant, then nothing.
Further to this, when my laptop automatically suspends after the user-specified time (which I cannot see, because I cannot access the System Settings), I cannot come out of standby mode... Pressing keys on my laptop (well, the external keyboard - my laptop's keyboard no longer works) does nothing but causes my laptop to continue to display a black screen! I tried to change back to my Radeon HD 6630M using Catalyst, but after entering the correct password in the pop-up dialog box, I get nothing!
Then I tried to re-install it as per my original support request: Need help getting switchable graphics working under Ubuntu 14.10
But all I get is errors:
~$ sudo apt-get install fglrx fglrx-core fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-pxpress

Any help would be appreciated.
