    Hi everybody.

    I have a Suse 9.0 from a couple of months now and sometimes I had an interesting
    problem, it seems a bug:
     - keyboard locks and no keys are sent to applications from
    keyboard. Mouse still works ...

    So it's funny but you can't do nothing... no special keys works :-)

    I tryed also xvkbd but keys are not sent ...
    You can open (clicking with the mouse) another session and everything
    works... and with mouse if you need you can cut&paste ...

    So my question is:
    Can I do anything to save/continue my session, or to begin understanding
    what went bad ?
    (what to look for, what try to kill, what tests )?

    For the rest, I find suse very stable and comfortable.

    Thanks in advance for any help,
    mauro
