Looks like the xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu-pro module requires older X.org. You may want to use Arch's xf86-video-amdgpu instead - however I have no idea if it will work with pro's GL drivers.

I did install and overwrite, but Xorg didn't start and not sure what's the issue. Xorg.log: http://pastebin.com/SNQ06q6p

About firmware files? Yeah, I guess you can try to ignore the amdgpu-pro-firmware package, and run it with the firmware from linux-firmware. Or, alternatively, overwrite the files - and later simply reinstall linux-firmware to get the old ones back.

Complains about files already existing in filesystem, not brave enough to force install :(

I have a supported card (R9 Nano), going to test.

Note: I don't have any idea if it works. Unfortunately, upstream AMDGPU does not work on my Athlon 5350, and I don't have time to compile the AMDGPU PRO's kernel modules, as they work only with Linux 4.2, and the chances that they will fix the problem are small.

IF PROBLEM HAPPEN
this package is our try to put amdgpu in ARCH, but this could break or have problems as amd update and change their packages for ubuntu
if anything happens you can always download a older tag in https://github.com/Ashark/archlinux-amdgpu-pro/releases and get the PKGBUILD there, and use makepkg with that build while we update or try to fix :)
ALWAYS USE LINUX-FIRMWARE-GIT IF LATEST DRIVER FAIL BEFORE ISSUE SOME ERROR
