Title:
  Ubuntu 14.10 & Radeon HD 7850, fglrx/fglrx-updates Driver fixes blank
  screen on boot, but can no longer enter decryption passphrase

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installing fglrx or fglrx-updates Driver, rebooting (everytime
  since) loading spashscreen is visable, with the dialog for decryption
  passphrase; however entering passphrase followed by return/enter key
  has no effect.

  My current workaround is to press reset key, then on next loading
  screen select the current linux kernal with recovery mode option,
  followed by resume boot. This brings up the decryption passphrase
  dialog in terminal, and Ubuntu 14.10 loads completely thereafter.

  System Specs
  Motherboard: ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX/GEN3 R2.0 with current BIOS
  CPU: AMD FX-8150 @ ~4.1Ghz
  RAM: 32GB (4 x 8GB) Corsair maybe G-Skill (it's been a while since installing it) DDR3 2133 Dimms @ ~2133
  Graphics Card:  PowerColor AX7850 2GBD5-DH (AMD Radeon HD 7850)

  Power Supply: Corsair RM 750 750 watt
  Several HDD's
  Current HDD with Ubuntu 14.10 installed: Toshiba USB 3.0, Model Number: V63600-C 1TB

  I'm not sure if this is purley a Driver issue or a Ubuntu issue. 
  Info from AMD CCC Information page reports 
  Driver Packaging Version 14.201.1006.1002-140902a-175601C-ATI

  Boot problem is with linux 3.16.0-29 and untested on linux 3.16.0-23.
  Also untested on Ubuntu 14.04.

  Thank you.
