Description Alexander Mezin 2012-11-24 13:26:33 UTC 
I have a laptop with intel+amd hybrid graphics. When I switch to discrete gpu using aticonfig, Xorg doesn't start. 
I see this error message in Xorg.0.log: "(EE) fglrx(0): unable to query kernel module!(EE) fglrx(0): PreInit failed". 
When I switch to integrated gpu, Xorg starts successfully (but only with patched or downgraded intel driver, another bug).
With xorg-server-1.12.2, ati-drivers-12.6 and xf86-video-intel-2.19.0 everything worked as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install x11-drivers/ati-drivers-12.11_beta
2. aticonfig --px-dgpu
3. Try to restart X
Actual Results:  
I see black screen

Expected Results:  
I want to see my desktop rendered on discrete gpu

Kernel: vanilla-sources-3.6.7
Xorg: xorg-server-1.13.0-r1
Intel driver: 
xf86-video-intel-2.20.13 patched
xf86-video-intel-2.20.2 non-patched, same result

Closing this bug, as 12.11_beta is not available in tree anymore. Please reopen, if you can reproduce with a recent version.
