[Bug 1583888] Re: Laptop crashes when trying to run discrete AMD GPUs commands with Xenial
Pierre Equoy:
1) Regarding your logs.zip and tgz file, it's much more helpful to only attach what is relevant uncompressed/untarred, versus copying everything in various folders (much of which isn't relevant).
2) Regarding including a .crash file. It's always best not to manually attach this to a report, as it could contain sensitive information one may rather not reveal. Hence, I'll be deleting the file momentarily as I've extracted the bits regarding the kernel call trace.
3) Regarding the .crash file, given this is an xorg crash, you would want to file a new report against it. Have you done this already?
4) Regarding the kernel call trace, could you please test the latest mainline kernel (4.7-rc2) and advise to the results?

** Description changed:
I'm trying to get my laptop with an AMD integrated GPU and AMD discrete
GPU to work with the open source drivers on Xenial.
- In order to use the discrete GPU, in Xenial you can prefix any command
- with `DRI_PRIME=1`. However, this will crash the OS.

I tried installing a backported kernel from
http://people.canonical.com/~amilone/amdgpu-4.5/ and even though the
computer does not crash anymore, it still won't show anything (but the
process launched will take 100% of the CPU and cannot be stopped nor
killed, it looks...).
I tried with the following commands:
glxinfo
glxgears
DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo
DRI_PRIME=1 glxgears
Once, I managed to get some output from the `glxinfo` command, with and without `DRI_PRIME=1` prefix:
$ glxinfo | grep -i "opengl"

So it looks like the discrete GPU is used, but so far I couldn't really
use it to run anything 3D-demanding.
Attached is a Zip with a lot of logs, hope this will help!
