Note that during these, mp3s keep playing, gtk-gnutella keeps downloading
things, etc., it seems X just isn't updating the display...  Even a resize
of a sizable gtk frame I did while it was frozen took affect when it
unfroze...  Have you tried loggign into a system during such a freeze to
see if it's sleeping or such?  I would, except ENOSPAREBOX and if I try
to switch to a console the screen getsd this black-and-green wooshy colour and
then it sticks there.
