i have tried every thing form solution nothing worked me. have tried this

chown username:username .xauthority   sudo chmod a+wt /tmp dpkg-reconfigure lightdm sudo service lightdm restart 

file .profile seems fine.

i using ubuntu 16.04 lts, linux kernel version 4.xx

please suggest can't work done without ubuntu.

thanks in advance.

your gpu not supported amdgpu driver. should uninstall driver installed amd.

you need either use open source radeon driver included ubuntu, or downgrade ubuntu 14.04 (no newer 14.04.4 point release) , use fglrx proprietary driver if need use rather open source radeon driver.
