["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Guillermo Lo Coco, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 1406222

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information.

As well, given the information from the prior release is already
available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be
helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Can't switch to Radeon rendering

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After playing a lot, I can't swith from integrated Intel to Discrete
  Radeon VGA.

  vgaswitcheroo:

  0:DIS-Audio: :Off:0000:01:00.1
  1:DIS: :DynOff:0000:01:00.0
  2:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0

  If: "echo DIS > ...../switch" display turn off. 
  I tried make an script, switching to DIS and after launching a modified xorg.conf. But even that, none seem to happend. Screen still off.
   
  GLXHEAD show rendering with INTEL instead of discrete Radeon:
  root@labPC:/tmp# glxheads 
  glxheads: exercise multiple GLX connections (any key = exit)
  Usage:
    glxheads xdisplayname ...
  Example:
    glxheads :0 mars:0 venus:1
  Name: :0
    Display:     0x1302010
    Window:      0x4400003
    Context:     0x13134f0
    GL_VERSION:  2.1 Mesa 10.3.2
    GL_VENDOR:   Intel Open Source Technology Center
    GL_RENDERER: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ironlake Mobile 

  Any openGL rendering app run slow.

  My question is, How can I enable Discrete Radeon GPU ?

  Thanks in advance!
