I use CentOS6 on a SONY VAIO VPCSB1A9E with graphic card AMD Radeon HD 6630M with AMD Proprietary Linux Driver (Dec.6.2013)
All works as expected with no issue and good performance; yesterday night I decide to update my kernel kernel-2.6.32-431.20.3.el6.x86_64 to kernel-2.6.32-431.20.5.el6.x86_64 and after this upgrade Xorg\Gnome is not able to start.
Starting centos with "old" kernel everything works fine.
Below the updated packages:
