A default Gnome install of either Fedora 25 or Fedora 24 (late=
st spin)
Workstation, on a machine with a Radeon HD6320 (AMD G-series T56N) graphics
chip running 1360x768@60Hz, has a display that most of the time is blac=
k on
boot (reboot required -- hangs?), but occasionally completes booting with a
display that all over shimmers with white noise, as seen in the following
