Confirmed not working on Ubuntu 15.10 64bit with my AMD R9 390 on kernel 4.2.0-16.

Both fglrx and fglrx-updates will return a black screen of death upon reboot after installation. The only way to revive the system is to do a fresh install.

This will cause many people to break their systems when they choose to upgrade their systems to 15.10 with an AMD card and attempt to install Catalyst.

I'm going to try the Kernel 4.1 workaround now, see if it works or not.
