First off, thanks for all your help thus far. A solution may actually be out there...

Anyway, I've added the codes for enabling Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, so at the very least I should be able to break out of the frozen screen without rebooting my computer.

I looked at the suggested logs, and the last several lines contained errors relating to config/hal, and a few references to keymaps in server-0.xkm. Any insights on those? That still says to be that X isn't closing down or resetting itself correctly. For whatever reason.

I suspect part of the problem, if not the root problem, is my video driver. My graphics card is a GeForce4 T1-4200 series. This is covered by the standard NVIDIA driver, but one of the legacy NVIDIA drivers specifically mentions this card. I'm now attempting to download and install the legacy driver and see if that changes anything.

But I'm looking at other options as well, just to be safe.
