I tried running without compiz, and it seems to help. But then it got hung running googleearth, so maybe it's some 3D acceleration that triggers it, and that compiz does 3D when it displays the drop-down URL list in firefox.

Checked my USB installation again, and there I had compiz disabled, so that would explain it not hanging. So the different disks and buses have probably nothing to do with it.

When it's hung, I can move the cursor around, although alt-sysrq doesn't seem to react. There seems to be some reaction to the power button.
