    Which card? Which driver: your previous one and the one you have now? Please post the command line you used to install the driver.

    Hi,

    Asus R9 280x it was default driver which come with installing Loki, i tried latest one from AMD (amdgpu-pro-16.40-348864 and amd-driver-installer-15.302-x86.x86_64).
    I think i do uninstall them and reinstall xorg, but nothing was changed...

    There should be an amdgpu-pro-uninstall script in the driver you downloaded. you need to run it.

    Code (Text):
    cd /into/the/folder
    ./amdgpu-pro-uninstall
