[Bug 1301839] Re: AMD Radeon HD 8670A/8670M/8690M[1002:6660] Low-graphic mode with Trusty
Hi Joeri,
it's fixed in xserver-xorg-video-ati, normally you just need to run update on your system could get it fixed.
Or you could run "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" command in your terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t).
