Are you sure you typed 'sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8.19.10-x86-64.run' 
and not 'sudo ati-driver-installer-8.19.10-x86-64.run'. If it still 
doesn't work, see if the execute bits on the file are set.
   $ ls -l ./ati-driver-installer-8.19.10-x86-64.run'

If not set the using chmod
   $ chmod a+x ./ati-driver-installer-8.19.10-x86-64.run

Then try running again. Good luck.
