I am currently running Asus FX505DD (Ryzen 5 3550H + 1050 3GB Max-Q)
Seems like the driver is not working (correctly?)
I went from Ubuntu 18.04 to 19.10 expecting it to start working, but no luck.
I tried download drivers using ppa and “Additional Drivers”
At best I was ending up with black screen.
The graphics card is not appearing in Settings > Details too
