"However, in both cases, attempting to enable multi-screen mode via amdcccle (with screen 1 right of screen 2) causes X to crash severely, as soon as you hit "OK" or "Apply"."
This is the screen setup I have and so is probably the reason that my system hangs, solid, right at the login screen, when I boot into 3.19.0-26. I will disable muliti-screen, reboot and report back. Also: As I have said; I have been collecting up the duplicates whenever I visit and so would like to ask: Are all the bug reports with the lines Title: fglrx-core 2:15.200-0ubuntu4: fglrx-core kernel module failed to build UdevLog: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/log/udev' UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) also this bug? I am not sure and have so far avoided adding them as duplicates, in favour of just pulling in the ones which either don't have an error stated outright, or have the 'pci_ignore_hotplug' flagged. Sorry, I'm new to this, want to help and don't want to cause any damage or further work for the already overworked. Could one of the mods or triage-rs please write an article about this for Linux Voice and the Podcasts, etc. in order to help the community to help you in the event of this sort of thing happening again. LV would definitely pay you for a well written piece about this and your employers may well do the same, as well as giving you time during work hours for the effort. Please give this some thought and do pass on this sentiment to others who know what they are doing here, as this may help allay any bad publicity which may result from this mistake.
