Today I noticed that if I restart X environment using : sudo service
lightdm restart, the static effect goes away and I can log in and use
graphical environment.

Obviously I have to perform lightdm restart on each boot, because on
boot, every time, I get the issue. I don't know if this information is
useful for bug report, please tell me if you need further information
about that, like logs or something else.

Title:
  radeon driver hangs : nothing else that static effect on display

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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) .
