Bug#887958: xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu: Can't start second X session



Upgrading libdrm-amdgpu1 seems to have solved the problem.

Dear Maintainer,

I am using KDE/sddm on a shard laptop with each user working in a different X
session. I start new sessions via the "Switch User" menu option, which launches
a new X session on a different virtual terminal. Since the last couple of
upgrades to debain/unstable (sorry can't tell you exactly how many but over
several months now) I have found that instead of starting a new X session, all
that happens is that my current X session crashes.

The most pertinent information I can find in the log files looks like this:

[   160.555] (EE) /dev/dri/card1: failed to set DRM interface version 1.4:
Permission denied
[   160.556] (EE) /dev/dri/card0: failed to set DRM interface version 1.4:
Permission denied

Sorry if this is the wrong place to be reporting this bug, but I can't turn up
any other reports that seems to match it so want to start the ball rolling.

Many thanks,
