Why Does 14.04 Hate AMD?

[GH]

Maybe try 14.10
I have an x8 core AMD and no problem with any version (I am on 14.10) 
nvidia proprietary update-331.32

I don't know for sure if the uptime is counting through reboots or after a reboot. It seems that AMD64 is a red-headed stepchild for some reason. I could never an exact fix on what was causing the freeze, because what I was running or not running varied. You could not get past the start of a boot and it froze, while I at least got to the KDM and ran a program or two before it froze. Hopefully, they will fix it soon. I know that the debug report window would open and allow me to send the failure report. As to whether or not it actually arrived, well, your guess is as good as mine. However, it is running better at the moment.
