I also am experiencing freeze-ups after running xfce for a few
seconds.  In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have (since before today's
updates) AutoAddDevices and AllowEmptyInput both set to False; and
xf86-input-keyboard 1.4.0-1 and xf86-input-mouse 1.5.0-1 are
installed.  This had been working fine.  I can access tty6 and kill
xfce and any apps running on it, but this is happening too frequently.
