Xorg jumps to VT7, you see a console cursor, "_", at the top left corner

OBP from where I can reset the machine (resetting by the reset button
don't work). It's still possible to ssh to the machine, more and dmesg is
possible, but running ps causes the machine to completly lock up, change
init mode don't give any affects att all and trying to turn off or kill X
results in the same as ps.
Does the dmesg contain any sort of oops?
Nothing else than the "happy guy" error message, the rest is just the
normal bootup messages like network card drivers been loaded and so on
(of course those are before the "happy guy")
Sorry for not including the whole dmesg, but been taking eye photos, so
have quite big difficulties to see anything, including text on 320x200
screen with big fonts.
