Title:
FGLRX incompatible with gcc 5
Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in fglrx-installer source package in Wily:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
SRU Request:
[Impact]
The fglrx driver is not compatible with gcc 5.x. This causes the
kernel module to crash on initialisation. As a result, users will boot
into a black screen, as X will fail (except on Intel+AMD hybrid
systems, where intel is used).
[Test Case]
1. Either install (or upgrade to) Ubuntu 15.10 and fglrx
2. Reboot
3. Check the display, and the output of the "dmesg | grep fglrx" command (to
see the actual crash)
Expected results: the system should be able to start X correctly.
Actual results:
The kernel module fails and X doesn't start.
[Regression Potential]
Low. Forcing fglrx to use gcc 4.9 is only a temporary workaround, and will be
replaced with the proper fix once AMD makes it available.
__________________________________________________________________________
With a R9 280 and FGLRX on ubuntu 15.10 the graphics lock up. I am
able to SSH into the machine. I booted the older kernel
(4.1.0-3-generic) and it works with FGLRX. After purging FGLRX and
using xserver-xorg-video-radeon I am able to get the graphics working,
but even it has issues with my display port (The DVI ports are working
correctly).
