I had the same problem when burning CDs.

Try that.  My machine almost always locked when burning CDs using X-cdroast or 
burning from the command line when running KDE.  If I logged into the 
console, did *not* startx, and burned the CDs at the command line, the burn 
always completed successfully.

Perhaps it's related to some odd XFree86 video driver problem.  Anyway, I'd 
definitely recommend trying it at a console without starting up X.
