Did you try?
CTRL-ESC
CTRL-BACKSPACE
-CTRL-F1, F2, F3, F4
to go to another window where you can kill the process.

Unhappy yes

yes,I had tried all of these I am sure,but will try again if
it does it again to make sure.Also ctrl,alt,backspace to try
and exit out of x server.Not sure what caused it,but mouse and
keyboard seemed to not do anything and I just wondered if anyone
had this happen before and what to do if it did it again.I am not
possitive if I tried all of them but think that I did ctrl,esc and
tried switching to another console also.Thanks for the response.
