[fglrx] ASIC hang happened

is a message indicating a deadlock in a compute-kernel (shader, GPGPU), which 
in almost all cases is a userspace bug or the timeout in fglrx is too low for 
the kernel in question.
I'm no expert in tweaking fglrx, but afaict there's nothing you can do except 
wait for an update of the driver.
You could also try the opensource-drivers (I think r600 in your case), cause 
those do their own heuristics to determine hanging or deadlocked compute-
kernels.

Best,
Michael
