I have the same problem after upgraded from Ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04. My graphic card is AMD R7 260X using fglrx-amdcccle-updates 2:15.200-0ubuntu4 driver. This driver seems working fine except I got blank screen when I tried to switch to virtual consoles with ctl+alt+fx keys.
The open source driver radeon is even worse, it randomly crashs X and get to the login screen and you can't log back it from the login screen. Instead, you need to "sudo killall Xorg". Tried many suggestions so far from the web, it didn't help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer-updates in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470862 Title: When using fglrx module, the virtual consoles are blank and useless Status in fglrx-installer-updates package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When the PC boots it shows the sddm login, but if I switch to the first virtual console using Ctrl+Alt+F1, the console is blank.
