HP DM-1 laptop with AMD E-350 APU is affected too. fglrx or fglrx-updates does not work, hangs at spash screen as others have reported. Without fglrx there are very much graphics glitches. I would say it is unusable.
I have not yet tried patches/debs posted here but I will give them a try. Just a note to others. You do not need to reinstall to fix. At GRUB screen just select edit and add "single" to the end of kernel line. You will then boot to single user console mode and can uninstall/purge fglrx packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1493888 Title: FGLRX incompatible with kernel 4.2 Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 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).
