This is my first solo consultation and I'd try to be brief and concise.
I recently installed Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon ed. (64bit) in my ASUS F50SL laptop and I've not been able to solve the problem with graphical acceleration warned through a notification every time I log on the system.

The integrated graphic card on my laptop is a legacy AMD Ati Radeon HD 4570 (with 512Mb) and It's difficult to find the correct driver to this graphic card.
Symptoms that I notice when not having graphical acceleration:
- -The proccesor is having too much work and the heat-sink fan is working intensively.
-The maximum resolution configured on the system does not fully match to the actual maximum of my monitor. Which is 1366x768

Things I already have tried to solve this:
- - I have installed through the Synaptic package manager everything related to the graphics driver for amd fglrx
- In the IRC Chat I was encouraged to update the Kernel to the last version and now I'm running the 4.10.0-20-I also have tried to install AMD drivers downloaded directly from AMD website, but there is a problem with that.Code: Select all

Any ideas?
Thank you everyone for taking time of reading me, and help me.
