Pretty sure I'm also getting this problem. System:

I'm running a dual-monitor setup on a Dell Latitude E6400, with separate X screens (instead of XRandR or Xinerama). I switch between the screens with a simple X program that I wrote to create a small window on the target screen, warp the pointer, then close the display. I switch screens pretty frequently and without thinking about it, so this program may have triggered the problem both times. Symptoms: The mouse pointer goes to the junction of the screens (left of right screen/right of left screen) and flickers rapidly. It can be moved a little with the mouse, but only ~1/5 screen from it's new favorite place, and after any deflection it always returns to the junction. The keyboards (both external and built-in) seem to be completely locked out, because nothing responds to key-strokes, including any attempts to get a virtual terminal (CTRL + ALT + F[1-7]). I have not attempted to kill the X server with CTRL + ALT + BACKSPACE. I can log in from another machine (SSH), and, in line with the earlier comments, Xorg is using an entire core. It ignores a SIGTERM, but SIGKILL works and gets me back to the GDM login.
