Allen Webb (vertago1-s) wrote : FGLRX incompatible with kernel 4.2

With a R9 280 and FGLRX on ubuntu 15.10 the graphics lock up. I am able to SSH into the machine. I booted the older kernel (4.1.0-3-generic) and it works with FGLRX. After purging FGLRX and using xserver-xorg-video-radeon I am able to get the graphics working, but even it has issues with my display port (The DVI ports are working correctly).
