Dear Linux folks,
Getting Dell Precision 3620 systems with an Intel Skylake system
i7-6700K, and an external AMD graphics card, the X.Org server does not
start and hits an assert. The software stack is Linux 4.9.38 and 4.12.5,
X.Org server 1.19.3 and xf86-video-amdgpu 1.3.0.
```
$ lspci -nn -s 00:01.0
00:01.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Skylake PCIe Controller
(x16) [8086:1901] (rev 07)
$ lspci -nn -s 1:00.0
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Bonaire [FirePro W5100] [1002:6649]
```
The monitor’s DVI cable and a DVI-to-DP adapter is plugged into the
DisplayPort port of the AMD graphics card. The TTY login screen can be
shortly seen before GDM tries to start.
Please find the last X.Org server messages below.
```

```
The USB keyboard does not work, and the system has to be controlled
remotely over SSH. Plugging in the DisplayPort cable into the internal
Intel graphics ports the Linux messages can be seen, but nothing else
works. Stopping GDM does not bring back the TTY screen. The keyboard
still does work. Plugging the USB cable out and back in doesn’t fix it
either.
Trying to disable the internal Intel graphics card, did not fix the
problem either.
Kind regards,
Paul
