There might be a better solution than this, but if your XFCE session freezes, you should be able to press Ctrl-Alt-F1 which will give you a text screen where you can logon again. You can then run 'ps -u username' to see what processes are running in your XFCE session, and use the 'kill' command (run 'man kill' for help on options) to kill offending processes. When you are done, press Ctrl-Alt-F7 - this will return you to your XFCE session which hopefully might be responsive again.<br>

Do note that you'll lose any saved data.<br>(Now that I'm talking: if a single application crashed, try pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc, then clicking the window to kill it :)<br>
