"my team"?
that's a nice one.
it's your team as well as anybody elses.

but hey,

nothing you posted here so far indicates that there's a problem other than you not liking the temporary blackout during the boot process.

you not liking something is not a bug.
or have you already provided the documents necessary to prove that there's indeed a bug?

fyi, fglrx is a proprietary driver, not sure if it's open source or not.
as you stated yourself, the undesired behaviour is not present with the free (as in software) radeon driver.

so, the problem happens either during the switch from radeon to fglrx, or it happens inside the fglrx driver itself.

if ithappens inside fglrx, you can get in contact with the developers and tell them about this behavior (but i strongly recommend to not shout "bug", like you did here).

if it happens during the transition from radeon to fglrx, you can search if there are possibilities to load fglrx earlier during the boot process. it might help.

btw,
what are your hardware specs? can you post the output of
Code:
lspci -k
(please use code tags)

you have 2 graphic cards in there.
hybrid graphics.

you have to search & read & understand what that means.

...

what ubuntu installed for you is probably pretty good already.

so it goes black for a few seconds on every boot?
that's probably when it switches from one card to the other, switching drivers as well.

if you have the know-how (i don't) you can probably change that.
if not - and windows looks better while booting? - you can always switch back to using windows.

you got it all backwards.
i wasn't insulting you - just laying out the facts.
you, on the other hand, clearly are insulting me.

spitting on the helping hand.

oh, and sorry that i don't have a 100 working step-by-step solution for you...

but yeah, this was definitely my last post in this thread.

I found soulation for anyone has the same issue blank screen when loading ubuntu-gnome 15.04 plymoth splash

1- Disable the kernel module option (CONFIG_VGA_SWITCHEROO) set it to N

2-update your kernel configration by # update-initramfs -u

3- create fglx configuratio to work with your Xsession ( the code only for 64bit system)

# gksu gedit /etc/X11/Xsession.d/10fglrx

CODE:

LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib/fglrx/dri
if [ `uname -m` = 'x86_64' ]; then
if [ -d /usr/lib32/fglrx/dri ]; then
LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=${LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH}:/usr/lib32/fglrx/dri:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri
if [ ! -z $LD_LIBRARY_PATH ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
fi
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}/usr/lib32
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
fi
fi
export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH

4- create radeon blacklist configuration

# gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/radeon_blacklist.conf

CODE:

blacklist radeon
blacklist radeonhd

5- Start to configure integated GPU

# sudo amdconfig --initial

# sudo amdconfig --px-igpu

The above soulation helped me to boot my system without blank issue with integrated GPU .

Im still havent any solve to boot with my discrete GPU but im still search

If you would like to try the discrete GPU on your notebook may be it work DO:

# sudo amdconfig --initial

# sudo amdconfig --px-dgpu
