How hard is the restart - power button, or just ctrl-alt-delete
(or ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-delete) ?

When working with lockups I sometimes set a 5 minute cron job to sync the 
disks:
0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /bin/sync
5,15,25,35,45,55 * * * * /bin/sync

then when it locks up I wait five minutes before pressing the power 
button. This often gives the machine a chance to write the log to disk.
