I updated my Ubuntu 16.04 to the latest one. It looks like the Radeon open source is not working even though it's installed. The graphics is stretched horizontally. This command:



lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D'


outputs the following:



00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] BeaverCreek [Radeon HD 6520G]
Subsystem: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd BeaverCreek [Radeon HD 6520G]
Kernel modules: radeon
--
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Seymour [Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series]
Subsystem: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd Radeon HD 7470M
Kernel modules: radeon


I tried to install the amdgpu-pro from AMD site but Ubuntu is stuck (loop) in login.



I can't seem to make it work after trying workaround from other questions already answered.



Thanks.
