Ok, today xorg crashed without any reason (I was writing an email in
thunderbird).
I had the chance to logon that computer via ssh.
I did some investigation with ltrace:

ltrace -p <pid of xorg> produced a lot of following lines:

--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
--- SIGALRM (Alarm clock) ---
...

I wasn't able to kill kdesktop or Xorg as root with kill -9

Best regards

Peter
