I bought a Dell inspiron 17R 5721 it has 2 graphics cards, an Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 and a AMD Radeon HD 8730M. Intel's card (on board) works just fine after doing what it says in this article.



With AMD's card, no such luck. I've tried to install the catalyst drivers that ubuntu suggests but no luck. I checked on AMD's website for drivers, it's in version 13.04 for about a month and some now, and that version, doesn't list my card as supported.



Does anyone know if I can make my graphics card work with ubuntu 12.04?

Try with the beta driver of this month following the tutorial of this answer:



What is the correct way to install proprietary ATI Catalyst Video Drivers (fglrx) directly from AMD?



Beta Driver: http://www2.ati.com/drivers/beta/amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13-6-beta-x86.x86_64.zip



I suggest to try with the beta driver because the changelog says that adds support your graphic card: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst13-6LINBetaDriver.aspx
