Bug Description
I've been trying to get hybrid graphics working on my Dell Inspirion 15R and I get the low graphics mode when starting up. This is on Raring.
I have tried fglrx & fglrx-updates from the restricted archive, AMD sources, and the fglrx-updates found in ppa:andrikos/ppa and all fail the way. The X server seg faults every time (see attached Xorg log). I have also tried the workaround at https:/
I will also add the info from apport-collect to this bug.
