Thanks to Sabastian Siebert, use these simple instructions to manually build the rpm and install fglrx on your system:
wget http://www.sebastian-siebert.de/downloads/makerpm-amd-14.9-os13.2-refurbished.sh
sudo sh makerpm-amd-14.9-os13.2-refurbished.sh -i
… and reboot. That’s it, say goodbye to buggy radeon driver 
Source: http://ubuntuku.org/46/how-to-install-fglrx-amd-catalyst-on-opensuse-13-2/
I wouldn’t call it “buggy”.
It’s running perfect here since years on an old Radeon 9600.
Of course it might not support all chipsets (especially newer ones) perfectly yet, and there might be problems with specific ones. But it’s definitely not buggy in general.
Anyway, according to Sebastian Siebert’s homepage (which is in german), the new script also works on Tumbleweed.
Hmm… This is my personal opinion and I not trying to… I have the latest 2/3 years had a little unusual(how the monitors are connected) 2-monitor setup on a AMD 3850 APU(HD 6550 GPU). I had to disconnect one monitor when install up to and including 13.1 otherwise it went crazy when start up 1st time. The easy solution was to use the “full konsole screen” at login and download and install the fglrx and then after next reboot use “amdcccle” to set it up my DE.
When I started to test late pre-versions of 13.2 on my main DE I found that the “radeon driver” was actually working much better. I could live with the function it provided. Great improvement for me. I feel that I can fall back to use the “radeon” only.
Another story is that I have change my 2nd monitor twice since that and now fglrx makes my low-HW computer feels comfortable to deliver again :).
regards
Today I installed the new driver available now, see http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/36522-amd-releases-new-catalyst-omega-1412-graphics-driver.
And it works under 13.2 64 bit.
I was running with nouveau until today, but this one is really an improvement.
Hi
I tried to build rpms using the makerpm-script and also installed the packages provided in the repository http://geeko.ioda.net/mirror/amd-fglrx/openSUSE_13.2/
Unfortunately it’s failing with the following error message.

Do you have an idea how to debug the issue?

How did you manage to install? When i run the script provided by amd with “sh amd-driver-installer-14.501.1003-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg SuSE/SUSE-autodetection” i get an error:

I’m having the exact same issue (see the thread I started on this topic).
Out of curiosity, did you do a fresh install or upgrade from 13.1? Some
users who did a fresh install have had no issues, so I’m wondering if we
can nail this down to an upgrade issue.

I would like to know how to get the new driver 14.12 aka Omega to run. But 13.2 ist not listed with --listpkg. ArjenRodenhuis wrote he is using it but has not answer yet. Maybe you all try to get this one run instead of an older version which does not even support the xorg 1.16.
I started with a fresh install. Btw. today I tried quickly to install the new version of the drivers with a tweaked version of Sebastian’s makerpm-script. Unfortunately it fails with the same error but I didn’t have the time yet to investigate further.

My video-card is a HD7850. Before 13.2 I was running 12.2 with fglrx.
After upgrading to 13.2 I had first problems with the nouveau driver getting active. X11 was still trying to load fglrx.
I decided to search the root partition with Dolphin for every file with fglrx in its name, and renamed them.
After that the nouveau driver was loaded.
My advise is to keep your xorg.conf as small as possible, see mine below.
Someone was having problems with a wrong .conf file, see https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/369385/geforce-drivers/failed-to-initialize-the-glx-module-can-39-t-init-glx-driver-on-fedoracore-6/
The file /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so is linked to
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/fglrx/fglrx-libglx.so
And there is /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so
Earlier you had to use the kernel boot parameter nomodeset, but I don’t use it anymore.
Finally some logs and my .conf file. I hope you will succeed in getting it running.

The installer will run - it just won’t build the packages (because, as
you said, 13.2 isn’t listed). I ran it and got it running by manually
launching xinit, but gdm just won’t start when I boot the machine.

Hmmm, that’s interesting, thanks for that. how are you tweaking
Sebastian’s script? I started down that road, but it looks like part of
it pulls from launchpad.net, and I didn’t know what file to put in for
that.

I managed to get it running with the new version of the drivers but had to switch from gdm to lightdm. Unfortunately I was unable to figure out why gdm is failing to start.
I removed the part of the script relying on content from lauchpad and used only Sebastians’s packaging script amd-14.9-refurbished-packaging-script.tar.bz2. If you like I could post the modified version of the script.

Thanks, that might be useful to have a look at.
Interesting that changing to lightdm helped, I’ll give that a try.

That got me working, sort of. It seems to be a GDM issue (the
LoadExtensions error).
Also, Sebastian updated his scripts for the new drivers.
Out of curiosity, do you use Steam at all? I’m seeing a weird behavior
with Steam that I think might be GNOME related, so it would be
interesting to compare notes.
When I launch Steam in “big picture” mode, if other apps are running
under it, clicking the Steam UI results in Steam disappearing for 3-4
seconds, and not registering the mouse click.
If I have no other apps behind it, Steam lets me click things OK, but
when I launch a game (I tried with Light, which I’m also trying to
diagnose another issue with), clicks with the primary mouse button on the
game UI act like a secondary click on the desktop background.
Which is weird.

Actually, I found that there was an open window behind the game, and if I
closed that, then I could click in the game UI OK.
So, generally looking OK with those caveats.

One additional caveat - when not using GDM and using GNOME, the lockscreen
shortcut doesn’t work. For me, locking with dm-tool -lock resulted in
the primary display (HDMI, 4K display) not resuming and I had to kill the
X server to get back in.

I figured they’d arrive shortly after the script - good to know. Thanks!
