I have a similar issue after clean install of Kubuntu 15.10. No matter if I use fglrx or fglrx-updates when trying to launching amdcccle I get this: "There was a problem initilizing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition". I used the Driver manager to install these drivers. I have a HP ProBook 450 with a hybrid graphic. Now I cant switch to dedicated GA. There were no such problems in previous 15.04.

After the upgrade, my system had fglrx and fglrx-core installed. I had to manually install flgrx- andcccle. When I tried to run amdcccle from the terminal the cursor moved down one line and nothing else happened. No error messages. I rebooted, and the problem was the same. So I purged the fglrx packages, rebooted and installed frlrx-updates versions. Now, when I run pkexec amdcccle, I get an Initialization error that reads: There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition. It could be caused by the following. No AMD graphics driver is installed or the AMD driver is not functioning properly. Please install the AMD driver appropriate for you AMD hardware, or configure using aticonfig. When I run sudo aticonfig --initial --adapter=all I get this error: Unable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver. aticonfig: No supported adapters detected ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+7ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-25.26-generic 3.19.8-ckt2 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-25-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Wed Jul 29 23:02:03 2015 JournalErrors: -- Logs begin at Wed 2015-07-29 22:12:49 EDT, end at Wed 2015-07-29 23:02:12 EDT. -- Jul 29 22:39:39 hostname org.gtk.vfs.Daemon[2253]: ** (gvfsd:2408): WARNING **: dbus_mount_reply: Error from org.gtk.vfs.Mountable.mount(): Failed to retrieve share list from server: Connection refused Jul 29 22:39:39 hostname org.gtk.vfs.Daemon[2253]: ** (process:13132): WARNING **: Couldn't create directory monitor on smb://x-gnome-default-workgroup/.
