description: 
X freezes every few minutes. 
By attaching an old laptop via nullmodem, pppd and ssh I was able to see that 
X uses all the processor speed it can get when freezing. The mouse (USB) and 
the keyboard (PS2) aren't usable any more in that case. 

From my observations I deduced that it happens more often when rather loaded 
interfaces - like the newsgroup trees in knode - are involved. This is my 
observation only. Also xmms with a long playlist seems to crash it. The 
problem isn't limited to these cases though, I think. 

X can only be brought back by doing a "kill -9" on it. 

Frustrated cheers ... 

PS: When commiting, there was a javascript box popping up, asking me if I 
really wanted to commit, as the latest version is 6.7.0-2mdk. The latest one 
is 6.7.0-3mdk though, and that's what I have installed.
