I have hybrid graphics on my laptop. How can I install AMD drivers for Radeon HD 6400M/7400M card on my Ubuntu 17.10 ??



The installed version of xorg is 1.19 & is not supported by the driver installer and prompts me to downgrade to version 1.10 or 6.9.



I don't know how to do it and couldn't find any help on-line.



Please help, as I'm relatively new to Ubuntu.
