sometimes kde or x just hangs.... I can not even kill any kde programme after it happens. I am able to kill X by doing a "ctrl-alt-backspace", but after that, X doesn't restart - even if I change the runlevel from 5 to 3 and then to 5 again. After reinitialising runlevel 5, X simply won't start... This is very unusual. toggling between runlevel 3 & 5 normally fixes things
If I try to restart the machine it hangs while trying to kill any programme started in the X-Shells... You will need to find the process number that has everything tied up... killing them thoughtfully one by one (from the bottom) is one way to handle

If the normal kill doesn't get it then a hard kill will be required (use with caution): kill -9 <proc number> as root.
