Stephen,

I've seen this on many machines, not just iBooks running YDL. I've found
that this sometimes can be fixed by jumping back to the original terminal
(Ctrl-Opt-F1, i.e.) and then back to the X session (Ctrl-Opt-F7). My PB 3400
routinely dies a horrible death after waking from its dreamstate. I just
have to leave the top open and hope for the best. You can also try
Ctrl-Opt-Del to kill the X session if you don't want to power off the
machine. That's my experience, anyway. HTH.
