Computer freezes (Xubuntu Intrepid)

This is just a general question. I've had my computer lock up about a dozen times since I've been running Linux, usually because of multimedia plug-in type issues (but also because of badly-behaving math software). The screen doesn't refresh and I can't usually move the cursor.

What should I do in situations like this? In Windows I'd try Shift + Ctrl + Esc or Ctrl + Alt + Del. Is there something similar in Ubuntu? I don't think Alt + F2 works when it freezes like that.
