Does M-sysrq work?


I don't have it active and even if I did, it rebooted before I had time to test it.  Probably I should set it up next week when I get home.

I recently got a weird freeze in my F-17 upgrade. I went to remove one program and ended up removing about 38. after this I chose to re-install the entire OS and the problem was solved. You might not need to be as drastic. If you do top and view the one - or so many - program(s) that use an incredible amount of resources, then remove that/those program(s), you should be fine.
