I have the same type of graphics card, but I don't have a driver. use s3tc. its a compression tool. start by adding ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa to your ppa list, sudo apt-get update, then go to the software center and look up s3tc and there are 2 packages. install them both, and make sure you run the update manager. I did this, and my computer runs faster and better than ever when playing steam games. you do not necessarily need one, but if you are a gamer, I recommend this

s3tc? It is only texture compressing. I need power management. — UNIm95, Mar 11 '14 at 19:50
