You wouldn't have it set to check the network for computers capable of providing you X sessions, would you? I have seen that effectively lock up standalone systems in terms of user input to that box (you can still get in from a networked box or one running on a serial port if you have a getty on that port.) Look for references to xdmcp in your config files in /etc/X11 and /etc/gdm (grep -r is a great friend for that) and see that it is off if your machine is essentially standalone. -- Mark L.
