I have 3.11.0-14 installed in Saucy which freezes with the default 
driver but works with fglrx. Also have Raring installed with 3.8.0-34 
which works with the default driver. I tried the later kernel in Saucy 
and it freezes. Can't see any kernels in between these two in your 
references?

I also noted the following message before freeze in Saucy
- failed to find a backlight controller
which doesn't appear when using the fglrx driver

Title:
  [HP Pavilion 15-e010ax Notebook PC] Unable to install Saucy

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Tried to install U13.10 using the desktop installer on HP 15e010ax
  laptop. Goes thru splash screen to freeze with a black screen with no
  cursor. Unable to access terminal. Was using uefi boot with secure
  boot disabled. This is a regression as U13.04 works on this machine
  and has been used to gather the debug info attached due no terminal
  access in 13.10. This occurs when trying to boot to live session or
  straight to install. Appears installer cannot set up a satisfactory
  default video driver for this machine. Note VESA: KALINDI works on
  13.04 and probably should in 13.10.

  WORKAROUND: I installed saucy in this machine by a partition copy from
  another working pc. Found that a recovery boot works and installs
  video driver vesa:kalindi. Also installing fglrx works.
