           Summary: Konsole stops responding to keyboard
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: nigham gmail com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Occasionally after a reasonable period of use, a Konsole window will stop responding to the keyboard. I cannot type anything in the shell, switch tabs or do anything with the keyboard. However, mouse input works perfectly, to the extent that I can right-click and paste commands into the shell and they are executed as usual. Trying to give SIGCONT or pressing Ctrl+Q does not help.

I cannot seem to notice anything in particular that causes this to happen but I am usually SSH-ed in to a remote server. This happens to me once every few days.

If I try and open another tab or window using the menu system and the mouse, there is still no response. However, when I start a new session from the panel, keyboard response is fine. No other applications are affected by this.

Running KDE 3.5.5 on Fedora Core 5, using the default repository packages.
