Comment(by mikus):

 FYI

 I run with suspend disabled.  On several occsions with os8 on XO-1, I've
 lost X responsiveness.
 [What I want to do is to get to another View from within Terminal.
 Usually, the external mouse still works.  But when the F-keys stop
 functioning, I __can't__ get out of the F4-view!!  (I have frame
 activation via mouse disabled on my systems.) ]

 I normally use an external USB keyboard.  When that stops working, I try
 the keys on the native (green) XO keyboard.  If I cannot get the native
 'frame' key to work, I try <ctl-alt-F2> -- that usually gets me into a
 text console, from which I can kill X (and thereby restart Sugar and get
 the keyboard working again).  But at least once all I could do was to
 power down.

 I'm not able to reproduce this situation on demand.  If it happens again
 when I have an opportunity to capture the system's status, I will open a
 new ticket.
