The freezing problems you experience on the Amilo L7320 laptops are not related to the openchrome driver, it is a bug related to the APIC (or to a BIOS bug). It started with Ubuntu 10.10 (kernel 2.6.35). The clocksources are not detected or discarded by the kernel, and to work around this problem the kernel parameters [noapic, nolapic, nomodeset] can be used during boot time. (Btw I was also able to reproduce the problem on Fedora 15 and Debian Wheezy). For the Ubuntu 12.04 the nolapic parameter worked for me, for Lubuntu 16.10 and Lubuntu 17.04 (daily snapshot) nomodeset solves the problem. At the moment I am using Lubuntu 12.04 (kernel 3.2.0-120-generic):
