Any trial to install fglrx provides the same crash : total freeze of the desktop. Only way to get out : root + chroot & purge of fglrx. I had the same problem with 13.10 - 14.04 provides no cure. :~$ lspci | grep "VGA compatible controller" 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
