This is also happening in Ubuntu Trusty 14.04.3 LTS : right after installing fglrx-updates and fglrx-amdcccle-updates the virtual consoles become unusable, i.e. totally blank.
Again, as bad as the AMD support for Linux may be, as a matter of fact the proprietary driver is (unfortunately) still better then its open source counterpart: display quality is noticeably better, screen adjustments are way easier and more fine tunable than messing around with xrandr, composite window managers don't work properly or don't work at all with the open source driver. Much as I would like to do without the proprietary AMD driver, I need to use it to have my hardware working as I want, so please fix this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, 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 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/1470862/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
