Answer 1

If you have the correct driver, try editing xorg.conf

Answer 2

I suggest uninstalling the driver. Then reinstall the driver using EnvyNG.

To install EnvyNG for Kubuntu open a Terminal and submit the following command :

sudo apt-get install envyng-qt

Once installed run the software to install your graphics driver and restart when installation is complete.

That should fix it .
