check if the module is loaded

root@ultrabox:/home/kartan/hashcat# lsmod |grep fglrx
fglrx               15405056  38
amd_iommu_v2           20480  1 fglrx

Edit:

yea your clinfo error indicates that your module is not loaded, try to rebuild it with "--force". Btw did you take a look at https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto

That was the exact link I followed, but I opted to use the proprietary drivers for 15.12 mentioned in the thread above. I'll try my dpkg install with force FWIW to see if that helps. I didn't get any errors when the drivers were installed and aticonfig seemed to work ok.
