I think that this bug is not nouveau specific as it appears also on my t60 laptop with a ATI Mobility Radeon X1400-128MB graphic card. This happens mosty when the system is under heavy load. Sometimes I manage to switch to a console with ALT+STRG+F1 and kill Xorg (with sudo pkill Xorg). It will be restarted automatically, but the session is gone of course. Sometimes it's even not possibly anymore to switch to a console. Then only a hard reset helps.
