[elrepo] Centos 7.4 and fglrx

Tue Oct 10 09:23:20 EDT 2017

  I was having a dependency issue so for quite a while, maybe a year or 
two my machine was not updating. I finally fixed it and had over 2000 
updates done, now I have no graphics, no X. The Kernel is 
3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64 and yum installs version 
fglrx-x11-drv-15.12-3.el7.elrepo.x86_64. Here is the output of Xorg.0.log

I tried to install the newer version of fglrx, but I get this -

I am at a loss. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, removed and tried to 
use the builtin radeon driver and I cannot get a display at all. Its a 
Radeon HD 7660D graphics card. Any suggestions??
