I had a similar experience early in FC5 because I had stupidly copied the dot files from my saved FC4 home directory into my new FC5 home directory. I experienced random X freezes, but the machine remained viable; I could login using ssh from another machine. Rather than pore through .gconf, .gconfd, .whatever trying to clean up the mess, I just deleted and recreated my account with fresh dot files and haven't had an X lockup since.
