I think something is hosed with the radeon driver in mesa 17.2.8, but I can't find the 17.2.4 pkgs to roll back and test the theory. The 17.2.4 was pulled from updates and proposed lines. I'm hesitant to rollback to 11.2.
I can get you anything you need (logs, etc...) look at the issue. I'm a longtime, old school developer. Lived in the 'nix env for about 20 yrs, mostly Solaris.
