           Summary: Keyboard occasionally freezes until logout
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.2.2
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: a_kouz at yahoo.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Keyboard occasionally stop working. I cannot detect any pattern why it happens.
Sometimes I cannot see this problem for several days, on other days it might
freeze several times.

When keyboard is lost, I cannot enter anything to any application. I believe
NumLock and CapsLock LEDs stop reacting as well. 

Keyboard restored when I logout using mouse. Then I can type my password and
login again. 

Most often it happens while I use AlbumShaper while editing photoalbums.
Usually after a while I notice that keyboard is gone and I cannot type
anything. Quite often it happens while I type text in FireFox. But I think
there is no connection to any particular application, it might disappear at any
time.
