Hi, I got exactly the same Problem. Using Debian wheezy (fresh install in Dec. 2012, so no update from squeeze/gnome2.x with a radeon hd 5850 Card with one Monitor.

Anyone any idea as to find the cause, so I can file a bug against a package that could be the problem? I can't help, but I will say I saw that a couple years ago. Testing/unstable with Radeon, I believe it was, with either Awesome WM or Fluxbox. I never got very far in diagnosing it, but from what I did do, it seemed like it was an issue in Xorg (core or driver, I am not sure). If it is like my situation, using something besides gnome 3 will not help. At some point the problem downgraded to just locking screen and input, it would be accessible via ssh or similar. And then after some more updates, it went away. With the Intel system I use now, I have had a few times of instability with crashing or freezing X, but never complete kernel lock, and it was not as frequent and did not last as long... not sure how related they might be.

Testing Gnome3 Radeon OS complete system freeze
Hi, I am trying to run Debian Testing AMD64 with Gnome3 and the Radeon OpenSource driver, xserver-xorg-video-radeon. All are the latest versions, updated today (9 november 2011). After some time and always after clicking on an icon or something else on the screen my system lock up. It completely freezes, nothing works: no alt+F1 , ctrl+alt+del, alt-backspace, and no remote login via ssh. The only way to reboot is using the power button (off and than on).
