Title:
Ubuntu 14.10 & Radeon HD 7850, fglrx/fglrx-updates Driver fixes blank
screen on boot, but can no longer enter decryption passphrase
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After installing fglrx or fglrx-updates Driver, rebooting (everytime
since) loading spashscreen is visable, with the dialog for decryption
passphrase; however entering passphrase followed by return/enter key
has no effect.
My current workaround is to press reset key, then on next loading
screen select the current linux kernal with recovery mode option,
followed by resume boot. This brings up the decryption passphrase
dialog in terminal, and Ubuntu 14.10 loads completely thereafter.

I'm not sure if this is purley a Driver issue or a Ubuntu issue.
