running Mint 14 Cinnamon DE with exact same graphics card as VMC & using Nouveau driver &
same AMD Athlon K8 X 2 Dual Core CPU

same problem occurs..screen freezes & computer locks up

have to do CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to terminal to reboot....

this doesn't always work...only way to get back up is to do hard power down
and then restart

also seen using Ubuntu 14.04

have NOT seen this using Ubuntu 12.04...yet
