@Nick: I noticed that Freedesktop's bug 56494 affects a system based on AMD Radeon HD 6550M which uses PowerXpress 3.0/Switchable graphics and not PowerXpress 4.0/Dynamic Switchable graphics. It is likely that the bug is not the same. To clarify the version of PowerXpress supported by the various supported AMD cards, I'll post this short list based on information on AMD site (names are based on information available on AMD site and on the slides which can be viewed on http://www.slideshare.net/AMD/amd-enduro-technology):
PowerXpress 3.0/Switchable Graphics: HD 6300M series, HD 6500M series. PowerXpress 4.0/Dynamic Switchable Graphics: (HD 6300M series), HD 6400M series, HD 6600M/6700M series, HD 7300M series, HD 7400M series, HD 7500M/7600M series. PowerXpress 5.0/Enduro: HD 7700M series, HD 7800M series, HD 7900M series The HD 6300M series is reported as being based both on PowerXpress 3.0 (http://www.amd.com/us/products/technologies/switchable-graphics/Pages /switchable-graphics.aspx) and PowerXpress 4.0 (http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/amd-radeon-6000m/amd- radeon-6300m/Pages/amd-radeon-6300m.aspx), we need to see the report of an user with a GPU based on HD 6300M series to clarify this (apparently the muxless version of PowerXpress 3.0 is not supported on Linux, so if a HD 6300M series GPU uses the muxless version of PowerXpress 3.0 it should have the same issue reported on bug 56494 of Freedesktop). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068404 Title: Low graphics mode in Hybrid ATI/Intel GPU systems after fglrx upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1068404/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
