Title:
  tint2 taskbar boots irregularly with xserver-xorg-video-ati, boots
  fine with proprietary driver

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I run a little taskbar app called tint2. I boot it at startup, but
  about 50% of the time it isn't visible after booting. The other 50% it
  is. So I can reboot or logout/login until it sticks. At first I
  thought it was a bug in tint2, but now I have found that I don't get
  this issues when I run the AMD proprietary driver (fglrx). So I think
  it might be a problem in the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver. I have a
  Radeon HD 8600M series in a Lenovo S540.

  Additional note: when it does not display and I power off the
  computer, it is displayed for a brief moment before the computer shuts
  down. That makes me think that it is actually a display problem, not a
  problem of tint2 not booting at all.

  If this is unlikely to be caused by the xserver-xorg-video-ati driver,
  I apologize for reporting it here. If you need additional information,
  please let me know, I will be happy to provide.

  Required info:
  1) Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
  2) xserver-xorg-video-ati Installed: 1:7.3.0-1ubuntu3.1
