Title:
  DPM support is broken in radeon APUs with HD 8000 radeon chips

Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Using Ubuntu 14.04 amd64 with Kernel's 3.13 and 3.14, DPM (Dynamic
  Power Management) support is broken on my Radeon 8670D APU chip. What
  happens is that when my PC boots, it shows the login screen for a
  second then immediately reboots on its own, I do however have
  encryption enabled on Ubuntu.

  Manually disabling DPM support by adding "radeon.dpm=0" in
  "/etc/default/grub" in the section "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet
  splash" fixes this problem, but I would like to have better power
  management enabled for better performance of my chip.

  Specs: MSI FM2-A75IA-E53 motherboard, 16GB DDR3 RAM, AMD A10-6700T
  APU.

  The version of the driver 'radeon' is: 1:7.3.0-1ubuntu3.1
