Ideally in a way that other software (like browser or IM) would still be running and kind of accessible. My main question is: Can I run games in a separate xorg environment using the older xorg version that still has fglrx driver support in Kubuntu 16.04? I realize that AMD dropped support for proprietary fglrx drivers some time ago and they were deprecated in 16.04 due to incompatibility with the newer xorg.
I'm not entirely sure if my open-source radeon drivers are working as they're supposed to. Half the games are unplayable, sometimes to the level of nauseating due to low fps. I would like to play games with better performance than what I'm getting after updating to Kubuntu 16.04 LTS.
