My X sessions are doing strange things. at what seem to be random times
the keyboard simply stops working, the key events are not sent to X
clients. The Num-lock key also does not change the LED during this state.
Ocationally the Enter key will shift the X screen sideways (with
wrapping) so the windows all slide accross the screen. When this happens
the curser map seems to also get shifts as clicking the mouse on a window
might cause the root menu to show up, or clicking on the root might focus
a window not beneath the curser.
A server reset fixes the problem.
I've tried using XKB and not using it with no change in symptoms.
Whats going wrong?
Thanks,
