AMD VGA drivers for Ubuntu 16.04

Hello friends, its been long time since my last post. Sorry about that. I will update the blog regularly from now. (I hope to do so :) ) If you have ubuntu 16.04 and trying to install AMD VGA drivers to your PC. Stop and listen to my story. Recently I bought a laptop with AMD A6-9220 Processor with Radeon 4 graphics. I installed Ubuntu 16.04 in it and tried to find VGA drivers for it. Then I got many many troubles. After the installation I understood that I need to have fglrx drivers to install AMD Radeon graphics in my PC. Which Ubuntu stopped support after 14.04 version. There were many suggestions given in askubuntu and ubuntu.help sites, one of them is installing third party fglrx drivers and then installing AMD drivers. It also suggest some other techniques. Let me tell you what happens after I tried all those steps. My PC got stuck, Could not to get into GUI. This is how I got AMD drivers and Ubuntu 16.04. Install Ubuntu 14.04 as the primary OS in your PC.  In
