I have just tried this and it froze again.

This is what I did
1. Moved users profile to /home/<user>.bak
2. Created a new user home directory and changed owner & group to the 
user for that directory
3. Copied the following files/directories from old profile
   .mozilla
   .thunderbird
   .yajhfc        <-- for our fax system
   .bash*
   .profile
   .PowerTerm*   <-- for our old legacy system through VT420 emulation


When it freezes you can still use the application which is currently 
selected and but you cannot swap windows, resize, use the XFCE panel or 
Applications menu, or any Windows Manager type function. If I quit from 
the currently selected application then the next in line is focused and 
I can then access that application.

I can still reboot it through epoptes.

What should I try next?
