Re: Oddest graphics card issue ever, ati
I wasn't aware that Wine installed any drivers, in fact, from what I knew, Wine was not able to install drivers.
Lubuntu is not going to install AMD restricted drivers automatically, you have to tell it to do so. So, if you did not install them yourself, then you are using the default Radeon open-source drivers, which will not give you anywhere near the frame rate as will the fgkrx drivers.
As to fglrx driver install, in nearly all cases, the post-release drivers will fail. Don't know why -- that's just the general experience.
You CAN download and install drivers from AMD but if you do that, you'll have to redo that every time you apply an Update that changes the Linux kernel. If you install from Additional Drivers, you will not have to redo the install.
Ubuntu 20.04, Mint 19.10; MS Win10 Pro.
Will not respond to PM requests for support -- use the forums.
