Dell Studio 1747 Video Driver

I have an old Dell Studio 1747 with an integrated ATI video card. Linux identifies the device as (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RV730/M96 [Mobility Radeon HD 4650/5165]), but it can't locate any proprietary driver, so the open-source driver doesn't have hardware acceleration at all! :( I tried to install amdgpu-pro, amd-catalyst, fglrx packages, but with no luck. All that I found are obsolete drivers for Ubuntu 14.x.

sudo xrandr --listproviders returns: Providers: number : 1 Provider 0: id: 0x55 cap: 0x9, Source Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 2 outputs: 4 associated providers: 0 name:ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 @ pci:0000:02:00.0

Any help would be highly appreciated.

According to this, you are under obsolete world, i'm afraid.
