Installing AMD proprietary driver on Kali Linux 2 with kernel 4.9 and xserver 1.9. How to implement?

There was a need to supply these firewood.
I looked at the video (it turned out, presumably Crossfire):

01:00.0 Display controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun LE [Radeon HD 8550M / R5 M230] (rev ff)

I downloaded THIS driver for it.
Unpacked, made the file executable. Started the installation:
./amd-driver-installer-15.302-x86.x86_64.run --install

And received:
Created directory fglrx-install.waJVW3
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

How to put? I read in the open spaces of yours that you need to patch for this version of X, but I have no idea what specific steps to take. End result = installed driver.
