[Bug 1470862] Re: When using fglrx module, the virtual consoles are blank and useless
The open source AMD drivers are not a solution; I was obliged to switch to proprietary drivers because X/lightdm kept crashing on startup leaving me only with VTs to trouble shoot. Now with the proprietary drivers I can't see the VTs. The open source drivers every once in a while stopped loading the lightdm greeter. Reinstalling/reconfiguring lightdm and other steps didn't fix the problem. The /var/log/lightdm logs showed errors "Segmentation fault" in the x-0.log and "Process terminated with signal 6" in the lightdm.log.

[Bug 1470862] Re: When using fglrx module, the virtual consoles are blank and useless
Hi, This problem is still present in Xenial Xerus daily-build (I'm using the MATE flavor). I found that by changing, via update-alternatives, the x86_64-linux- gnu_gl_conf and i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf link-groups back to the Mesa choices, with the fglrx (or fglrx-updates) package still installed, and then rebooting, the virtual consoles now work and lsmod shows that the fglrx module is still being used (and the radeon module is not). So I guess this shows that the OpenGL configuration that uses fglrx is somehow related to the problem, and that the fglrx module is capable of having working virtual consoles. Just to note, after changing those alternatives: - My x86_64-linux-gnu_gfxcore_conf alternative is still the choice for fglrx-core. - My OpenGL is Mesa of course and is much slower (unusably slow, as usual) than using fglrx for OpenGL. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1470862] Re: When using fglrx module, the virtual consoles are blank and useless
That was (probably) more or less a given, this is clearly an ATI/fglrx issue. What I don't understand is why is considered somehow acceptable to suffer such an issue, or why the recommended "fix" (?) would be to get rid of the fglrx driver altogether. ATI support for Linux may be considerably worse than Nvidia (as recognized by many people in the know), but if the package exists in the Ubuntu repository it should work without rendering the virtual consoles useless, and this issue shouldn't slip all the way from 14.04 to 15.10. That >removing fglrx drivers is some sort of workaround, but presumably people that did install fglrx in the first place >want fglrx for some reason is the appropriate line of reasoning: the official package exists and should be installable without breaking anything major such as the virtual consoles. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Summarizing: (1) This is affecting at least 15.04 and 15.10 (2) tty consoles are 'functional' but blacked out (if you log in blindly, go back to destkop, and try `who`, there is a tty session running) (3) removing fglrx drivers is some sort of workaround, but presumably people that did install fglrx in the first place want fglrx for some reason ;-) (4) common workarounds for these sort of issues usually involve changing grub configs.

We know that already, the issue is that they are not really usable if blacked out: we have a monitor/display for a reason.
