Well, the freeze seems to stop all keyboard and mouse events.

The cursor is still blinking, and the mpeg123 weird bug is telling me 
that the computer is somehow still active. But I didn't tried to reach 
it by the network (I will try today but later).

Unfortunately, my computer at home is the only one that I have. I can 
try from my office to reach it by the network, but it is hazardous...

Anyway, your idea is a good one, I think I will try if I don't find 
anything else.
