fresh install Kubuntu 14.04 (15.10 same problem) XServer never starts

Sat Nov 7 11:59:52 PST 2015

Dear Christopher,
it seems that packages that Kubuntu installed for Radeon are in conflict
with innate GPU in the motherboard.
Do You think there is a way that I use this Radeon with this server?
Any other ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gregor
