It happened to me about a week ago, where I was viewing a page with IE6 in Wine. It froze; I could not get any console windows, and then it just rebooted. I'd bet that was X11. I've had quite some issues with that over the last six months or so, likely because I use dual monitors in Xinerama and the nVidia driver.

I refuse to run any login manager. I also stay away from Gnome. Xfce is my playground. I just start it upon login as my normal user via a conditional in my zshrc.
