I'm still having the same problem - booting to blank screen unless I purge fglrx*, lightdm and xorg to get to a command line interface. If I only try removing fglrx*, I get a window telling me that I have to set-up my graphics card, etc., but I can't progress beyond that. I've edited /etc/default/grub to try and remove the splash screen, and commented out the only line that seemed appropriate: #GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="drm.debug=0xe plymouth.debug" However, this lets me see that the system tries loading lightdm, but then falls down - at most, I get a single character cursor at the top left of the screen. All available updates are applied.
An abbreviated syslog is attached, but I'm afraid I don't know how to use this to track down the problem further. ** Attachment added: "Abbreviated syslog for failed boot" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1493888/+attachment/4535114/+files/syslog-short -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1493888 Title: FGLRX incompatible with gcc 5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1493888/+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
