Keyboard setup is done in "/etc/default/keyboard" file.

Thanks, fixed that. It was set to pc105, so presumably I screwed up
when installing Debian.

OTOH, are you sure there is no information/warning about the lock in
"/ var/log/Xorg.0.log"?

I'm not sure . Nothing jumped out at me, but I'm clueless. There is
this:

(II) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/nouveau_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib/dri/nouveau_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory)

Google search indicates that this isn't an issue (as does the II).
Attached is the entire Xorg.0.log.old.

Have you tried with another PS/2 keyboard? :-?

Am currently using another PS/2 keyboard; it hasn't locked up yet,
but I've only used it for an hour and the frequency is
about once a day (but 3 times yesterday).

Does the fact that, when the PS/2 mouse is installed, it also
locks up when the event occurs, mean anything? A USB mouse
continues to work.
