Xorg freeze

[thebravoman]

Binary package hint: xorg

I have encountered the problem three times in 20 minutes. While working with just firefox, without any flash sites open (if that matters), and audacious playing internet radio, the UI just freezes. I am no longer able to use the mouse or the keyboard. I also could not switch to another terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F(x) or Alt+F(x)
