Looks like a GPU lockup. Look in your /var/log/dpkg.log or
/var/log/aptitude to see whether xserver-xorg-video-ati or
mesa has been updated recently too. What were you doing
when the lockup appeared?

Anyhow, you should probably make sure that you are using
xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.7.196 currently in experimental.

It's hard to say whether your problem is related to this
bug report, which we don't yet whether it's caused by X
or icewm either...
