Bug description:
SRU Request:
[Impact]
The fglrx driver can't be loaded unless the amdgpu driver is
blacklisted (as we already do with the radeon driver).
[Test Case]
1. Install fglrx on Ubuntu 15.10
2. Reboot
3. Check the output of the "lsmod | grep fglrx" command
Expected results: the fglrx module should be loaded.
Actual results:
The kernel module can't be loaded because of the amdgpu driver.
[Regression Potential]
Low. We already blacklist the radeon driver; now that amdgpu is available in the kernel we should do the same.
------------
The fglrx packages should blacklist amdgpu so that the said driver does not prevent fglrx from loading.
