Need to go where the downloaded file is and extract the driver. (If you use a different browser that saves somewhere other than "Downloads", you will need to go to that directory when you install.)Ħ) Open the terminal (little black & white box by Menu).

Both worked in my testing.)ĥ) This boot, download and install AMD drivers. (Edit: it also appears to work installing the 4.10 kernel that is now available, instead of 4.8.

Click the "Update Center" icon beside clock. (May not need to update the 4.4 kernel since we are going to replace it, but I went with better safe than sorry.) Restart after updates to make sure everything is locked in.Ĥ) On this boot, install the 4.8 kernel.

This may not be the ONLY way to get it working, but it does work and I repeated it to make sure. After spending the day troubleshooting getting my RX480 running, I wanted to spend a little time making a concise to-do list for the novice. The main issue appears to be that the newest drivers DO NOT like kernel 4.4, so updating to kernel 4.8 could be all you need to do if you are having issues. Going to do a step-by-step from a fresh install for those that are having issues. They have the info needed in there, but buried along with other stuff.
There are a few threads floating around with info on this, but some of it is just a little bit off due to some changes in some things.
