The cursor still kept moving with the movements of the mouse (it got stuck every once in a while), though the cursor arrow graphics got corrupted, but I couldn't click on anything. Keyboard didn't work too: I tried alt+tab and even ctrl+alt+F1 to access a virtual terminal, but keyboard input didn't produce any effect. CPU consumption was high, or at least the cooler fan was running fast. I had no choice but to force a power down. After that, after a new fresh boot, I clicked the Thunderbird launcher icon again and the same happened again There's probably some bug in Thunderbird triggering this, but if a single program can hang the whole system in an unrecoverable way something's wrong in either Unity, Xorg or Linux. This second time, I was able to switch to a virtual terminal with Ctlr+Alt+F1. Then I went back to normal screen with Ctrl+Alt+F7 and it fixed the issue!! (without doing anything from the terminal). After this, everything behaved as if the Tab key of the keyboard was continuously pressed (which it wasn't, ovbviously) and this got fixed by actually pressing and releasing it. (I guess when the system was not responding, the key press was received and the key released was not processed; this must never ever happen no matter how hanged the cpu is).
