I can confirm this Bug is indeed the reason my 4 Desktop machines can't
enable the second ATI graphics card. I made the "a)" changes mentioned
here, <http://askubuntu.com/questions/453902/problem-in-setting-up-amd-
dual-graphics-trinity-radeon-hd-7660g-and-thames-ra/477006#477006>,
copied my xorg.conf file from my working 12.04.5 machine to the 14.04.1
HDD, deleted all the rest, and upon Boot both my Cards were enabled.
Both cards appear in clinfo, and I can issue commands in aticonfig
without receiving an Error.  What other, if any,  problems will this
Edit create?

I suspect if my 4 machines are suffering from this Bug then it's very
probable that many more are also effected. I'd hate to generalize,
however, I would guess that Most machines running some version of 14.04
are effected. This week I downloaded and installed the latest version
14.04.3 and it too has this Bug with my machines.

It would be nice if this were fixed, and I could run kernel 3.13.xxx
without having to make this Edit.
