@alcCapone: You said, "ALT+SysRq+K does work for me. Tested is
yesterday."  By this, do you mean that it worked to break you out of the
freeze?  Or do you just mean that it works for you in general, but you
haven't been able to try it to break out of the freeze yet?  If the
former is true, then this *strongly* suggests that at least the problem
you and I are having *does* have to do with X 1.6.0 (and/or its
interaction with some other element of the Ubuntu 9.04 installation).
This would also be a *bit* of a successful workaround, since it allows
people to get out of the freeze without having to perform a hard reboot.
Still not ideal, obviously, but it does help, and it does point us in a
useful direction.

@YS1: Thanks.  If X was started, you'd be able to access some form of a
GUI rather than a mere command line.

I'm going to see if I can re-install X server 1.6.0 and get ALT+SysRq+K
to break me out of a freeze, if alcCapone says that's in fact working
for him.  Maybe one of us can get a backtrace (see here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing) and figure something out.
