Catalyst 15.7 remains a failure. I checked their AMD site and saw they don’t support the 15.04 Ubuntu release, though they do for 14.04. I’ll pass this info to Penguin Recordings tomorrow.
Linux version 15.5 and 15.7 are available, while the remaining updates are still in beta testing.
Source 2 uses native openGL directly. There aren't many superior openGL versions out there, and AMD seems to have overlooked it quite a bit.
Native means it works directly on Linux without needing WINE. What I was saying is that the original Source1 engine was built for directX9, and later adapted to openGL when Valve focused on OSX and Linux. https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/..._to_their/ The updated Source2 engine was created from the start with openGL in mind, along with DX11, DX9 and Vulkan. A more efficient engine.
