I ran into this behavior several months ago on a Power Computing machine. Eventually I either gave up or upgraded to xserver 4.1.x, which has much better support for powerpc hardware. Anyway, ISTR at the time that it was a bistable thing... I could use Control-Opt/Alt-Backspace when the mouse froze to restart X, and when it restarted it would have a mouse. Then if I did it again, it would go back to frozen.
