i have no idea about the second problem, but the 1st one it's not=20
fbsd-specific. it has happened to me on a linux box. repeatedly i=20
might add. after a couple of hours playing videos, X would use 100%=20
of cpu and i wasn't able to switch to a VTY or kill it via ctrl-alt-
backspace.
i think it might be a problem related to mplayer, but i'm not sure,=20
cause it did not crash, so no bad-behavour log.
on the linux box, it's easy to handle (just /etc/rc.d/kdm restart via=20
ssh). But since fbsd doesn't use kdm it's only reboot.

i don't use mplayer or X on my fbsd box so i don't really know on what=20
version X or mplayer are. The problem has stopped happening on the=20
linux box. it uses mplayer 29411-3 and xorg-server 1.6.3-3.

just my 2 cents
