Subject: keyboard and screen freeze from X

X has left my keyboard and screen locked up. Everything else
has been running smoothly in the background for several days.
The screen is the initial screen with the giant X cursor in 
the middle, and no key strokes seem to be read. ps shows no
X related process id that I can kill. 

How can I fix this without a reboot?

TIA

Dave
