Can you check whether you can still log in from remote? If you don't
have a second computer, can you check whether SysRq+U, SysRq+B still
works (e.g. the kernel still runs)? In the later case, please check
/var/log/Xorg.0.log (before starting a new X session) whether the server
crashed.

When disabling DRI you should explicitly use
  Option "AccelMethod" "shadowfb"
because the driver (ATM) cannot fall back to this acceleration method
and will run completely unaccelerated.
