hashcat 3.10 Ubuntu 12.04 different GPUs HD5830, HD5970 - what driver works for both?

[ICONOCLAST]

update:
basically a disaster
apt-get install fglrx-updates --> same problem, will not boot hangs here
"CPU0...
CPUFreq Utilities: Setting ondemand CPUFreq governor..."

I flashed the bios with the latest update, tried various CPU config changes. ultimately left settings on "optimized"
what is here just does not work:
For Ubuntu 14.04 you don't need to install any of those, just "aptitude install fglrx". This is covered here: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=linux_server_howto

I made this procedure to install 15.9 or 15.12
note i created this from watching a youtube video

Note: this specifically says to download the linux x86_64 version and not the ubuntu x86_64
regarding this statement: "You need the installer from the AMD website. The ideal driver is 15.12, not 15.9."
There does not seem to be an "installer" unless you choose linux in the manual driver selection section.
if you choose ubuntu you have the 8 different choices I listed earlier in this thread. None of which work

Install crimson 15.12 or 15.9

15.12 installs but i get the locked boot and CPU error
15.9 does not install and gives me an error - here is the log:

NOTE: If your system has logged the missing packages required for installation, install them in the order as per the log file to resolve package-dependency issues.
fglrx installation requires that the system has kernel headers. /lib/modules/4.2.0-42-generic/build/include/linux/version.h cannot be found on this system.
Install kernel headers using the command apt-get install linux-headers-4.2.0-42-generic

and.. when i try this: apt-get install linux-headers-4.2.0-42-generic
i get:

Reading state information... Done
linux-headers-4.2.0-42-generic is already the newest version.
linux-headers-4.2.0-42-generic set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

so.. I am stuck.. 2 weeks ago I had a working system. I cannot seem to get anything working anymore.
Out of things to try.

I will say that the only two desktops I have ever had work are ubuntu mate and gnome
ubuntu mate I like the most. the file brower is superior to the gnome and you can remote desktop into the server from a windows computer no problem. I was able to get VNC working with gnome but never remote desktop.

Anyone have any ideas or a better procedure to try?
