On my linux box, it also has the dubious honor of being the only

That's a new one. Any other symptoms? Can you get a backtrace from a
coredump?
The good news is I could not reproduce it. But when it happens again
I'll know who to notify.
As I recall, the problem would occur in the query analyzer. If there
was highlighted text in the top window, and you highlighted a row in the
results, and then clicked into the upper window while dragging the
mouse, it would freeze the X server. It has happened much much less
often lately, but it did happen just two days ago, and it always
involves a click-drag situation.
Yes, that seems a gtk issue. You mark, then klick accidentaly into
the marked text (usually to change the mark area) and in the result
you are dragging the text to nowhere. pgadmin and X freezes in this
case. However you can login via another box and just kill pgadmin
to unfreeze. Maybe there is a problem with how drag & drop
is/isnt handled by the code? I have no idea.
