In a next attempt I install the proprietary AMD Radeon Drivers following the manual at: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Raring_Installation_Guide
1. Preparation sudo apt-get install build-essential cdbs dh-make dkms execstack dh- modaliases linux-headers-generic fakeroot libqtgui4 devscripts sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1 2. Download Drivers Download Radeon HD 7450A Drivers Release Notes: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/amdcatalyst13-4linreleasenotes.aspx Download http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.42&lang=English 3. Unpackage unzip amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.zip chmod +x amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run 4. Create and install .deb packages sudo ./amd-catalyst-13.4-linux-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/raring sudo dpkg -i fglrx*.deb -> Then reboot 5. Test fglrxinfo -> gives all info fgl_glxgears -> works perfectly 6. But!! After a few minutes the system freezes/hangs again with exactly the same symptoms as before. I am starting to get desperate ... Anybody has an idea how to interprete this? Does this mean that xorg is not the problem and I have to look somewhere else?

There does not seem any pattern when this happens. Usually takes 10-20min. There is no application running that requires special graphic ressources. Requires hard reboot. Mouse and keyboard hang. <ctrl> + <alt> + F1 does not work. Interesting is that this happens also with ubuntu 12.10, ubuntu 12.04.02 LTS and fedora 18.

I ran "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xservers-xorg" to reconfigure the Xserver but this did not bring any change. 2. This sound like Bug #1077616 but I have a Radeon and not a Nvidia card.
