>   AMD Catalyst (amdcccle) - 4.2 Linux Kernel bug
>
> Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
>   Incomplete
>
> Bug description:
>   Xubuntu 15.10 does not detect a AMD card, hence AMD Catalyst
>   (amdcccle) does not work. First, it is necessary to initialize it,
>   first rebooting the system after installation of fglrx-updates,
>   copying the /usr/lib/fglrx folder to /usr/lib64/fglrx, and using
>   "aticonfig --initial". In spite of that, these steps are not enough
>   due to the bug, that it is temporally solved by installing wily-
>   proposed files, as described in :

>   A Fix For AMD Catalyst On Ubuntu 15.10 Is Coming

> Comments
>   While Ubuntu 15.10 launched last week, the AMD Catalyst driver hasn't
> been working but that's in the process of changing.
>
>   While there's been patches for letting AMD Catalyst work on Ubuntu up
>   through the Linux 4.2 kernel, the binary driver has ended up failing
>   to work on Ubuntu's 4.2 kernel as found in Ubuntu 15.10. So even right
>   now with a sudo apt-get install fglrx on Ubuntu 15.10, the driver will
>   not work.
>
>   As reported in the earlier article, users have found the workaround to
>   be just downgrading to the Linux 4.1 kernel where the patched Catalyst
>   15.9 driver then plays happy. However, this new workaround that's in
>   the process of landing in the Wily archive, fixes the issue by
>   building the fglrx driver's shim against GCC 4.9 rather than GCC 5.
>
>   Alberto Milone pushed a fixed driver into wily-proposed. "Add a
>   dependency on gcc-4.9, and force fglrx to use gcc-4.9. This prevents
>   fglrx from dying on initialisation. Credit for finding out the actual
>   problem and for suggesting a workaround goes to David Burrows. Note:
>   this is only a workaround, and it will be dropped as soon as a proper
>   fix from upstream is available."
>
>   This lengthy bug report details the struggle people have faced in
>   getting AMD's proprietary driver working on this newest Ubuntu Linux
>   release. If you want to get your Ubuntu 15.10 box running with AMD's
>   blob prior to the new update landing in the official Ubuntu package
>   archive, you can follow the steps for using the driver from wily-
>   proposed via this bug comment.
