Adrian, it wouldn't hurt to mention in the upstream report that you tested a much more recent version of the radeon drivers, and fglrx works fine.
** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Description changed: The kernel was launched with the options: radeon.mst=1 radeon.dpm=1 (however, I noticed identical symptoms for radeon.mst enabled only) The setup in total includes 3 screens: laptop's one + 2 times Dell U2715H (connected by Display Port daisy chain) I get Ubuntu login GUI on two Dell screens, laptop's screens got off. The Dell screens are properly detected as separate: I can move mouse from one screen to another. Image on the last Dell screen is defected (blur) as in the attached picture. After login all screens switch to power safe mode. Afterwards, I'm able to switch to CLI (ALT+CTRL+F2) but screens is doubled on two Dells (they are treated as one), laptop's screen remains off. - In dmesg I found only information about error: - [drm:radeon_mst_encoder_dpms [radeon]] *ERROR* DPMS OFF 0 + WORKAROUND: Use fglrx.
