which driver did you install?  did you check http://www.ros.org/wiki/simulator_gazebo/SystemRequirements?
I think the proprietary one from the ati website is the one that works most of the time, not the open source one... ATI GPU owners on this list can correct me if I am wrong?  Thanks,
p.s. also, please post the error message on the console or in the ros logs can help diagnose the problem.
