Title:
  fglrx renders extremely slow in latest kernels

Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using latest development version of xenial (ubuntu 16.04).

  My video card is AMD HD7950, and I use an MiniDP-to-DP line to connect
  it with an Acer XB240H display.

  With fglrx or fglrx-updates installed, everything renders extremely
  slow, even raw terminal renders like 100 lines per second.

  Workarounds failed:

  * AMD official driver failed to build due to bug #1502978.
  * The open source driver can only provide 1024x768 resolution.
