Public bug reported: Ubuntu release: 12.10 fglrx: 2:9.000-0ubuntu3 Expects: after login window decorations are visible What happens instead: neither window decorations nor dash are visible
After installing proprietary AMD video drivers unity does not work properly. After login neither dash no window decorations are displayed. Window content itself is displayed. With open-source drivers everything works well. But open-source drivers doesn't allow AMD APP SDK to use GPU as an OpenCL device, so they cannot be used as a replacement for proprietary drivers for OpenCL-related tasks. I think that this bug is the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1068661 . Bug 1068661 describes this problem as a problem with hybrid (integrated and discrete) graphics. But my configuration does not have integrated card. So I decided to make a separate report.
