Maybe. I call it fglrx because that's what I install as a package in
Ubuntu (although normally downloaded from AMD). With just those packages
in a fresh install, it's a mess already: They present various totally
unrelated version numbers (none of which reflecting a "Catalyst version").
Catalyst 14.9 seem to consist of fglrx version 14.301 and "something
else" version 1573.4 (iirc there are even more version numbers
involved). It's probably all really obvious to that poor AMD guy but
it's a damn mess for me as a user. People refer to "Catalyst x.y" and
you just can't know what you have from looking at your version numbers,
or often not even in the file names you installed from.
On a side note, running oclHashcat with APP-SDK installed is not even
supported. Not sure how they run it themselves...
