My question is related to this one: How to get AMD Radeon HD 5450 drivers on Ubuntu 16.04



My setup is working, though really not optimally; the display is SO slow with CAD software!



I am using Radeon HD5450 on Ubuntu 16.04 with the 'out of the box' driver, and I can't manage to improve it.



I think it has to do with the radeon driver, but I don't know how to adjust it.



One way could be to disable it and fold back on the onboard gfx card when working on CAD software (yes, it is that bad!)...

  • Sorry for not being clear. And thank you for your attention. The problem is following : with ubuntu16.04.3, I had the radeon driver working (almost fine) for a HD5450 card. But my favorite cad sw is not wortking : that is the sole exception. OpenGL or any component is not working. I was looking how to improve the setup to get the cad sw working too.

I have had to re upgrade, because I couldn't go back.



With the base components from 18.04, the radeon card is working again, and so is the CAD software.



So I can't explain why or how, but it seems the radeon open source driver is better in 18.04 than it was in 16.04.3.

I do not come from a particularly wealthy family, (very low middle class), and was only able to afford my education via school loans/scholarships and working low-wage jobs, with no support from my family or anyone else. I realize some scholarship/loan programs extend into grad school. But I don't think those cover all costs. Now I'm lucky enough to have a decent-paying salary in industry, along with benefits and living on my own, and I'm thinking one day (sooner rather than later) I'd like to try my hand at research or continue my degree, but these things cost money, in addition to my regular living expenses.
