That happened to me occasionally (1x or 2x a week) under X11R6 6.8.2,
which is why I decided to make the move to R7 last week.  For what it's
worth, it has not locked up on me yet... inlcuding when I run Mesa/DRI
applications, which seemed to be the most frequent cause of lockups
under R6.

Is the computer standalone, or do you have another computer on a LAN you
can use to telnet in and kill all X-related processes?  If you can, that
would at least tell you if the system itself is locked up or just the
keyboard/console.
