That's the first we've heard from quite a few testers that the GUI is "useless". We'll try and released an improved version for the next minor release (drivers for ATI and NVIDIA cards are in development).

Are there any particular things you do before it freezes up?

Actually, we've got more reports of programs freezing up. Thanks for letting us know, and we'll try to make 0.2.1 a release where Xynth doesn't suck.
