In the meanwhile this bug gets fixed, is there a way I can use graphical environment without using radeon driver? A sort of failsafe/default Xorg graphical mode, otherwise a way to install fglrx which it worked until 16.04 ?
Please provide me this information if it is possible, also a link or two are welcome, keep in mind that since 16.04, on that pc, I can only use text mode (console) interface.
