AMDGPU PRO Driver Version 16.50 is now available für SLED SP2 under the following link:
http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx
Installation instructions:
http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/How-To-Install-Uninstall-AMDGPU-PRO-driver-on-a-SLED-SLES-12-SP-2-Based-System.aspx
Is this useable for openSUSE Leap 42.2? I think it is based on SLED 12 SP.
Hi
If you have one of the supported cards in the list, the install script checks for either SLE or openSUSE as an ID. So it should work.

Hi
You also need dkms which isn’t built for openSUSE Leap 42.2, have sent
an email to the Bumblebee project Maintainer to add the build target.

My Graphics card (RX 480) is in the list of supported cards.
Also the Bumblebee repository seems to be available now. The amdgpu-pro-preinstall.sh script adds it to the repositories. The command “amdgpu-pro-preinstall.sh --check” means I should run the install script for the driver. 
I will try this in the next days when I have time, because I first will set my X and kernel back to the versions included in Leap 42.2. As you know, I installed a newer X / kernel to get the opensource amdgpu driver running. So I hope the amdgpu pro driver builds its own amdgpu kernel module because my graphic card ist not detected withe amdgpu kernel module included in Leap 42.2.
OK, I see dkms is used to build the kernel module which is included in an actual version in the AMD driver package. So I should really work with the original Leap 42.2 X and kernel.
The good news: I successfully installed this driver on Leap 42.2. I just executed the install script and it works. OpenGL with KDE Plasma works. The Mesa demos works.
The bad news: Steam crashes the X server now on start. I have to look what the reason for this is.

Hi
So what confirmations do you see to indicate it’s the pro driver? Does
lspci output show extra info, xorg logs etc?

The driver works fine for me too except for steam, i get the same segfault in Xorg!

Hi
Think your going to have to talk with either the Steam folks or AMD (or both) to resolve. I’m guessing it doesn’t happen with either the amdgpu or radeon kernel drivers?
The xorg logs shows that the amdgpu driver (amdgpu_drv.so / kernel mnodule version 16.50.5) is loaded:

Hi
Interesting showing other cards, what about the output from;
/sbin/modinfo amdgpu
So can see if my card is listed (and which one it’s using).
Yes, the X server crashes. I get the following messages after steam start:

In my case it tries to load the 32Bit amdgpu_dri.so which fails, because, as far as I see, there is no 32 Bit version in the amdgpu pro driver package. But the crash occurs after swrast is failed to load. But swrast is available in a 32 Bit version on my system. I have to do some more experiments with steam and I should look in the xorg logs too.
The output of modinfo ist too long for the forum. So I removed the alias lines:

Yes, maybe is more a question to Steam. With the opensource kernel amdgpu driver from kernel 4.8 I installed before, it worked, including some games I tested.
Unfortunately, I think, yesterday also a steam update comes out, so this can also be a reason. And I can’t test the opensource driver now, because I don’t want to change the system again to the 4.8 kernel an the newer xorg. It’s to time consuming. And if it is somehow possible I want to stay with the amdgpu pro driver, because I can use the standard Leap kernel and xorg.
I checked my Xorg log now and I have exact the same backtrace after steam crashes. But unfortunately no solution yet.
I’m not familiar with steam in the least, but:
But why is going the 32bit route to begin with, as opposed to 64bit?
In my case it tries to load the 32Bit amdgpu_dri.so which fails, because, as far as I see, there is no 32 Bit version in the amdgpu pro driver package.
not likely the case if you’ve got a 64bit package of amdgpu-pro … in any regard, you should be able to see the list of files installed via the file tab in Yast SM
libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
But the crash occurs after swrast is failed to load. But swrast is available in a 32 Bit version on my system.
In cases like this (i.e. the driver is present, but the app is reporting it can’t find it), its suggestive of a symbolic link problem
The crash info, on the otherhand, looks more ominous
I’m also not a Steam expert. I only use it to start some games. 
Till opensSUSE Leap 42.1 Steam works well with the firegl driver and an older graphics card, which died in the meantime.
The amdgpu pro installer only installs a 64 Bit version. As far as I see, also in the local repository amdgpu-pro-local, which is setup by the installer, only 64 Bit versions are available. Especially the amdgpu_dri.so is only available once, in a 64 Bit version. So, AFAIK, it is not possible to set symbolic links to the 32 Bit versions because there are none. The Mesa drivers which comes with Leap 42.2 in the opposite, all have a 32 and 64 Bit version.
On more question. Someone knows if a mesa-filesystem package is available on SLED. I can’t find it in the Leap 42.2 repositories and if I try to install the mesa-amdgpu-pro-vdpau-drivers package, from the local repository which the amdgpu pro installer added, it is missing a mesa-filesystem package.
Hi
No mesa-filesystem (sounds like a bug in the package) in SLE 12 SP2. If you press 2 to ignore what happens?
If I ignore it the package installs.
But vdpauinfo, first shows an error because loading the module fails. After set the following links, vdpauinfo shows a result and vdpau works with mplayer.
