I'm not sure .  Nothing jumped out at me, but I'm clueless. There
is this:

(II) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/nouveau_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib/dri/nouveau_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory)

Google search indicates that this isn't an issue (as does the II).
Attached is the entire Xorg.0.log.old.
Thanks... yup, I see something suspicious (or maybe not) at the end
of the file:

"evdev" module is unloaded for no apparent reason but not sure if this a normal/common log.
To check this, I just restarted the machine and compared the
Xorg.0.log.old file created with the one following a lockup
(and subsequent restart).  The unloading of evdev appears normal,
however, what is not in the "normal" restart log are the lines

(II) Power Button: Device reopened after 1 attempts.
...
Device reopened after 1 attempts.
Any idea what that might indicate?

Those messages appear benign.  That is the result of switching to a
virtual terminal and then back to X.  That action does not trigger
the keyboard lockup.


Interesting. How did you figure that out?
