We can't make much progress without seeing the kernel printks.  There's
probabyl something there, only we're not seeing it.  Options would be:

- When X is running, do the alt-shift-F1 thing to get back to the VGA console,
  and try to get X (which is still running) to freeze in this state.  Maybe
you'll
  see some messages

- Get that serial console working!

- have you tried getting netconsole working over the wired ethernet?

If we _can_ get those messages coming out then we can go further and
investigate the NMI watchdog, whcih can be useful in locating random hangs. 
But until we can see those messages there isn't much point in setting that up.
