I am waiting for it to happen again, but in a situation where I could
remember what led up to it.

My ~/.startxwinrc *had* been linked to the default one.  I was trying
to avoid the "fbinit" (?) icon/program from starting.  Currently, my
.startxwinrc contains only these two lines:

   xrdb .Xresources
   sleep infinity

For some reason, my X resources file is not being read without
explicitly running xrdb.  Not the case on my work laptop.

The machine does not go into sleep/hibernate.  It *could* be the
monitor.  I'm using the embedded Intel 4600 graphics with the latest
Intel driver, and the monitor does power off after about 1/2 hour or
so.  At first I thought it might be related to a remote login from
TeamViewer.  I'll try to remember what led up to the next crash,
when/if it happens.
