Comment 21 for bug 1061001

I recently noticed on my Asus X550DP with ATI Radeon HD 8550 768MB and HD 8670 2048MB, the problem (captured wallpaper only) will only occur when I use the secondary graphics device, that is the HD 8550 which is intended for battery savings.

Using the primary graphics card, HD 8670 that is intended for performance, gnome-screenshot and shutter captured the correct data. One can switch between graphics card using the AMD Catalyst Control Center and each time you switch requires a reboot. I also noticed when using the secondary graphics device, the primary graphics device is not listed on the Information section of the AMD Catalyst Control Center. However, these two devices is listed when the primary graphics device is in use. I'm using PearOS 8 that is using Ubuntu 13.04.

uname -a output:
