The installation error I've mentioned on bug 211385 as needing fixed before we accept -geode into Ubuntu.

From the Xorg.9.log, it appears that GEODE is getting properly detected and loaded:

The lack of Xrandr is troubling, since that will make screen configuration less easy (I'm assuming it just hasn't been implemented yet for -amd). It sounds like DRI wasn't enabled either, although EXA seems to have loaded ok. I'm not sure what to make of that final warning, but it sounds like something that should be looked into upstream.
