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:

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?
Any comment is strongly appreciated!
