I've had this same behaviour recently as well; seems to happen with the X 
sleep function (amdx2 m2pv-vm)...  (I also tried to login with ssh. pings but 
connection is refused)  I thought it was an upgrade to xorg 7.1. 
that did it.  I've downgraded to 7.0 and it hasn't happened now for about 2 
days.
