Thank you for your anwer.
-> The bug report above contains catalyst because I was unable to get to a working GUI without it (and when I try to send bug report from console, it logs in with wrong information and I don't know how to change that).
-> emailcustomercare just says that their driver comes "as-is" and that's it :-(

Following your instructions:
I uninstalled the driver following the instructions under Removing Catalyst/fglrx of your cchtml link.
-> First reboot: Everything works great
-> Second reboot: Same problems again, this time even 2x complete system hang (NumLock and CapsLock not responding, Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and Ctrl+Alt+Delete not working).
-> Choosing Advanced Ubuntu Options -> Recovery mode -> Resume boot, I finally succeeded getting to a working GUI (GNOME Fallback). I created an error report with the actual problem situation (no catalyst installed) and marked it as a duplicate of this bug. Link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1176053

I will now install catalyst manually, following your instructions.
