Hello, I use Zorin OS and I see that Zorin OS has detected my RX 570 and i can set 144hz, but wine says no display device detected

I tried to install the driver for Ubuntu 16.04.4 but did not work.

Apparently there is an issue with Ubuntu 16.04.4 drivers and amd drivers in general:

It may require installing earlier kernels for the AMD drivers to work - but then there is no telling what it would do to the system. Does the GNU/Linux driver provide adequate results?

I found the bug. Wine was installed as 64bit architecture so I could not install the additional programs for gaming like Visual C++ Redistributable
