Black window with Gnome3 (xf86-video-ati 1:7.6.1-1)

[Oscar Megia]

Hi

I updated xorg-server to 1.18.0-4:
[2016-01-12 21:20] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-server-common (1.18.0-3 -> 1.18.0-4)
[2016-01-12 21:20] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-server (1.18.0-3 -> 1.18.0-4)
[2016-01-12 21:20] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-server-devel (1.18.0-3 -> 1.18.0-4)
[2016-01-12 21:20] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-server-xwayland (1.18.0-3 ->
1.18.0-4)

and without xorg.conf now two issues were solved (black windows and
unlegible letters in LibreOffice).

So it looks that weren't a ati driver issue. Sorry.

Very thanks
Oscar
