      Hello,

      I installed this kernel and my system starts properly (older kernel 4.3 prepared by Michael with powerplay support didn't work for me - kernel crash at startup), however it looks like reclocking doesn't work. I have the same performance with glxgears (vblank_mode=0) like with standard Ubuntu 15.10 kernel 4.2 and only 13 FPS in The Witcher 2 (settings maxed out, just ubersampling and vsync disabled) in the place where on Catalyst 15.7 I had 60-70 FPS. How can I check if powerplay works properly on my platform? I have R9 380 2GB.

      Cheers,
      Patryk
