my laptop's led blinks a lot), my mouse works (I can move it but not

you tried monitoring your memory usage? (even with the system monitor
applet) If you aren't working as root on your laptop you could use
pam_limits to limit your memory usage (and see what process gets killed by
using too much memory) or keep an eye on a top sorted by memory usage.

Then, I noticed that it also happened with XMMS and MPG123, as well as
rhythmbox-gstreamer and rhythmbox-xine. I also tried to
