Hi Paul,
I faced the same problem of blinking cursor when using the below 3
different drivers :
fglrx-driver 1:12-6~beta-1
amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run
amd-driver-installer-12-3-x86.x86_64.run
I then followed Issam's recommendation as below to workaround the
issue and got a good gdm3. But this breaks the xorg dependencies.

I believe the problem comes from an incompatibility between FGLRX
version 12-4-1 and xorg 1.12.
I've had the same symptoms and solved it by downgrading xorg to
1.11.4-1. Make sure to downgrade the input packages too.
Thanks for the feedback. Will try out and feedback the result.
Hi Issam,
I have downgraded core xorg files to 1.11.4-1 and xorg input files to
lower versions matching the 1.11.4-1 release dates.
xserver-xorg-core_2%3a1.11.4-1_amd64.deb
xserver-common_2%3a1.11.4-1_all.deb
xserver-xorg-dev_2%3a1.11.4-1_amd64.deb
xorg_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb
xorg-dev_1%3a7.6+12_all.deb
xserver-xorg_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb
xserver-xorg-input-all_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb
xserver-xorg-input-evdev_1%3a2.7.0-1_amd64.deb
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics_1.5.99.901-1_amd64.deb
xserver-xorg-input-wacom_0.12.0-1_amd64.deb
This is followed with a install of
amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run . Success: got my my gdm3 in
standard mode.
Thanks again.
