So I've tried the mainline kernel

kat@korat:~$ uname -a
Linux korat 3.19.0-031900rc4-generic #201501112135 SMP Sun Jan 11 21:36:48 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

On my laptop and tried all the steps before to try and reproduce the lockup.
MySQL workbench
Google Chrome
Fast switching between desktops
Making lots of screenshots
Running Spotify 
and I even tried the same Steam Game that I had a lockup with on my development machine.

So my observations from this experiment are:

* Mainline kernel (3.19-031900rc4) with opensource driver and AMD Radeon
works ok Mobility Radeon HD 3650 (gaming framerate is still extremely
low <10fps)

* Mainline kernel (3.19-031900rc4) with fglrx driver and AMD Radeon HD7870 fails to build in DKMS see .txt attachment. Looks like a simple programming error.
 
* Mainline and Signed Kernels (3.19-031900rc4, 3.13-044) Opensource driver with AMD Radeon HD7870 is broken black screen with the only way out ALT+SysReq+REISUB

* Signed Kernel (3.13-044) with Opensource radeon driver with Mobility
Radeon HD 3650 causes GPU lockups.

* Signed Kernel (3.13-044) with AMD fglrx driver and AMD Radeon HD7870
causes lockups when running games with Steam

* Signed Kernel (3.13-043) with AMD fglrx driver and AMD Radeon HD7870
works normally.

++ There are no Proprietary driver to test with for the Mobility Radeon
HD 3650 so fgrlx was not tested with this videocard.

hope this helps.

Title:

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS

  I was working on a project and had the following applications open

  MySQL Workbench
  Google Chrome
  gnome-screenshot

  All of a sudden everything freezes, the indicator-multiload stopped moving.
  I was able to switch to tty1 using CTRL+ALT+F1 (see foto of the screen in the attachments)

  The error reads:
