I am having the same issue. In this case I have the following hardware:

Toshiba Satellite L505D-S5965

CPU - AMd Athlon Dual Core Ql-65

Ati Radeon HD 3100.

I also tried the PPA that downgraded X Server to install the fglrx-legacy package. No luck there.

I will update this with the corresponding apport collect information.
