Running Gnome in terminal 1 as normally privileged user.
Initialized by startx.
Switch to terminal 2 (CTRL ALT F2) and log in as same user as in
terminal 1. No commands issued in terminal 2.
Switch back terminal 1 (CTRL ALT F1), and X has crashed. Gnome is
X (usually) runs on terminal 7. Try (Ctrl+)Alt+F7. And yes, it has
happened to me as well ;)

was not running in terminal 1 at all as I expected, but was "hiding"
(from me at least) in terminal 7.
That raises the question, though, about what happined to terminal 1.
Why won't it respond, and why does it appear to be comatose???
It's about the same as with starting programs that don't detach from
the terminal they were started from (the majority). Press Ctrl-c and you
will get your terminal back, but also kill X/the program.

Andrei
