Public bug reported:

Ubuntu version:  Ubuntu GNOME 14.10 stable amd64
GDM version: 3.10.0.1-0ubuntu7
CPU Vendor: AMD
GPU vendor: AMD
Computer type: Laptop

After fresh installing Ubuntu GNOME 14.10, everything was fine and I
installed fglrx. However after I reboot my machine it just stuck between
the start screen (with GNOME's footprint in the center) and the login
page. It was a black screen but the screen is on because I could see the
backlight. However I was able to change to a tty by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1
and after I installed LightDM and made it as default my machine
successfully booted into the login page and everything was fine.

I think this is a bug related to GDM, fglrx, systemd and upstart.
