No.  The problem is not in kernel, always in the X server itself,
which crashes with backtraces.

Kernel has never reported anything being wrong, and non-X-consoled
service application do continue to work.

I have been able to reduce this likelyhood by DISABLING the Gnome
mouse setting "Locate Pointer".  In fact it has not happened since
I turned that feature off.

I have never had problems with mplayer, like those quoted cases show.
