FC6 and "lost" keyboard

I put FC6 on a vanilla P3-500 with 768ram. After X comes up and the user logs in, the PS/2 keyboard becomes unresponsive after a few minutes of use. In order to get a keystroke to register on the screen, either in a terminal or an X window, the user has to hold each key for about a second before it shows up on the screen. I've installed and used _many_ distros and BSD's and have never seen behaviour like this. Googling shows no precedents. Any comments?
