Title:
  [HP 15 Touchsmart] AMD Radeon HD 8400[1002:9830] ghost image appears
  with specific resolutions

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  CID: 201310-14248 HP 15 Touchsmart

  There are 5 resolution options available:
  1366 * 768
  1280 * 720
  1152 * 768
  1024 * 768
  800 * 600

  When using the open-source video driver, the 1280 * 720 and 1152 * 768 resolution does not work well with it, there will be some ghost images.
  Screenshot captured by the Screenshot program looks good. But it looks bad with human eyes, see attachment for the photo.
