We are experiencing some problems with this as well, but we have not been able 
to find a ryhme or reason to it as yet.  Using KDM with Debian Stable/KDE 
3.1.1 and running xterminals loose the mouse occasionally, and we have to 
reboot the thin clients to get the mouse back active again..

The only error I haven't yet tracked down that is reported, and not sure if it 
is related, is 
kdecore (KAccel): WARNING: Sym::initQt( 100b ): failed to convert key.
(Would be nice for a time stamp on that one)
