You'll need to go to AMD's drivers and search for the lastest certified driver for the Firepro 2260.

To search for the correct drivers and now the lastest Catalyst for Radeons search here

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download

I'm going to be also doing the same. To proceed with the installation of the drivers you'll need some extra packages. This thread has some help with that.

I'm going to be upgrading my system from 6.5 to 7 here soon and also have a firepro.

While I had problems for some reason installing the lasted certified release 13.352.1014 the firepro beta 14.20 installed without any problems following that guide I linked. The key factor is the ./amd-driver-installer-14.20-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg RedHat/RHEL6_64a and installing the rpm. Installing the rpm installs the extra packages needed.

Over the weekend I downloaded the newest AMD Firepro Catalyst drivers version fglrx - 13.352.1019 for the Firepro graphics cards what was released 9/8/2014. On the Firepro V3900 these drivers don't work with the Centos 7 with everything update to date on the system. The Beta AMD FirePro/GL/MV 14.20 driver released on 6/10/2014 do work fine. I haven't come across any problems running Blender, Autodesk Maya or Mudbox. I just thought I'd update the information to help keep people informed.
