[Linux] Black Sceen on startup

On startup, I get a black screen. After looking at various forum posts and messing with the config file (toggling every option, using fullscreen, fullscreen-windowed, and windowed for window-mode, various display buffering settings, etc.), I have turned to creating my own post.

Here is my log.txt. It cuts out here, no crash or anything, but a SIGKILL is needed to close it.

    Your issue seems akin to this one.
    You might try a full uninstall and see if you get any further down the shader list. Though it does sound like there is just some issue with the new AMD drivers that cause them to hang on compiling.

    On reinstall, I get three more shaders. So I guess I just have to wait.
