Dave Lentz, this report is not the same as bug 1058040 as the scope of 1058040 is HD2000-4000 series cards, and a Firestream 9250 is not a part of that series.

As well, as per AMD, a fix for HD2000-4000 series cards in Ubuntu 12.10+ is not planned, and the newest release available for those cards was provided on 7/24/2012 as per http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/legacy-radeon_linux.aspx .

However, AMD has recently and explicitly provided a beta release for the Firestream 9250 on 12/3/2012 as per http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.11.1&product=2.11.1.3.3&lang=English . However, they did not explicitly note it is covered under 13.1 (which provides Ubuntu 12.10 support).

AMD has been contacted to confirm if the Firestream 9250 is covered under 13.1 or not, and if/when Ubuntu 12.10 support will be available. we are awaiting their response.

If you have any questions about this or any other fglrx report, please direct them to the Ubuntu X team at https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-x .

Thank you for your understanding.
