Grid is crashing on me, using a R9 290 on Kubuntu 15.10 and Padoka PPA. The crashes are more frequent if I turn the settings all way up. Actually it freezes the PC, needing a hard reset to recover. Another game is Counter Strike:GO, when I load a map the game closes itself. In the default mesa stack in K/Ubuntu 15.10 it load the maps normally.

Well, Grid also crashes with the Ubuntu 15.10 original Mesa, so the problem is not the Padoka PPA per se.
