Dear Christopher:

Thank you for your answers. I do have a AMD card, but it was necessary to
initialize it, first rebooting the system after installation (unless the
system does not recognize the card), 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 there is a bug with AMD Catalyst (amdcccle) and
4.2 Linux Kernel, but it is temporally solved by installing wily-proposed
files, as described in
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-15.10-fglrx-Fix
and
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1493888/comments/123.
So, I finally could install amdccle.

Best regards,

Jaime.
