 I was working on XO-1.75 A1 # 7, running Q4A07 and EC firmware 0.1.6,
 testing OS2, when I left the laptop sitting at the Linux console prompt
 for a few minutes.   When I returned, the console was locked up.  Nothing
 I typed (e.g. CTL-ALT-F*) had any effect.

 The WLAN light was stuck on.

 Pressing and holding down the power button (I was pinching it, actually)
 had no effect.  I eventually power cycled the laptop by removing all
 power, and it started back up fine.
