I'm using latest Xubuntu. I can't find any AMD drivers for Linux only for Windows 10. I want to change power settings.

Im not sure what you mean by Ryzen, cause the CPU usually doesn't need any specific drivers, especially with Linux, its all built in within the kernel.
If you mean the Software used with a Ryzen CPU then I don't know if AMD provides a Linux solution or not.

As Salazar stated, it is baked into the kernel. You just need to make sure you are using the latest version. 

As far as software Ryzen Master, it is only available on windows as far as I know.

There are no drivers for Ryzen on Linux only amd-ucode for microcode updates which should come with your Ubuntu install already.

XFCE power manager seems to be Xubuntu's power manager. the most you will be able to do is set when your computer or monitor sleeps.

If your looking for anything like Ryzen Master or Ryzen Balanced Power Plan, you wont find it on Linux.
