[magowiz <1581799@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the meanwhile this bug gets fixed, is there a way I can use graphical
environment without using radeon driver? A sort of failsafe/default Xorg
graphical mode, otherwise a way to install fglrx which it worked until
16.04 ?

Please provide me this information if it is possible, also a link or two
are welcome, keep in mind that since 16.04, on that pc, I can only use
text mode (console) interface.

Thank you

Bug description:
  Hi,
  since upgrade from ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04 I was unable to use mine videocard due to drop support of fglrx driver (that was working) and due to radeon opensource driver not working with my VGA.

  Mine video card:
  $ lspci -nn | grep VGA
  00:01.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sumo [Radeon HD 6410D] [1002:9645]

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:	16.04

  I'll attach further files (dmesg.log , version.log, lspci-vnvn.log) .
