Title:
  xorg.conf overwritten by booting system

Status in “ubuntu-drivers-common” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  Hello,

  I am using a notebook with a quadcore AMD A10 and hybrid graficcard AMD/ATI Radeon HD 8650G / AMD/ATI Sun XT Radeon HD 8670A/8670M/8690M.
  After installing fglrx I generated the xorg.conf in the terminal with 'sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --initial' and it looked pretty good. Up to this point I was able to switch between the cards with the commands 'sudo aticonfig --px-dgpu' for the discrete card and 'sudo aticonfig --px-igpu' for the intigrated card to save power.
  After rebooting I realized that I was no longer able to switch between the cards and found that the xorg.conf will be overwritten whenever I modified it and reboot the system. The new (by boot) generated xorg.conf contains not the relevant information for switing between the cards.
  I attached both configuration in one file (xorg.conf.comparison). I will also provide the atisysteminfo-report.txt so far I will find the place where to attach.

  Edit: I fixed the error --> "AIGLX error: failed to open
  /usr/lib64/dri/fglrx_dri.so, error[/usr/lib64/dri/fglrx_dri.so: cannot
  open shared object file: No such file or directory]" but it changed
  not the bug of overwriting the xorg.conf.

  Regards,
  Uwe
