 i investigated a bit further and noticed the following fact:
 
 the system doesn't freeze when starting vid. it freezes when vid is
 stopped.
 % vid
 ^C
 
 -> freeze
 same for kill and kill -9
 
 interessting about this stuff is that when checked in the console (no
 xterm) one still can:
 - use numlock, it toggles the led
 - use scroll lock, it also toggles the led and the cursor, though
 scrolling is no more possible
 - pressing keys results in movement of the cursor (visible after pressing
 scroll lock twice)
 
 console switching is no more possible (results in cursor movement)
 
 stopping the process doesn't freeze the system (via ^Z)
 
 tell me how i can investigate further
