Yeah, I get this kind of behaviour once in a while, although
using completely different hardware; an old Rage IIc card, and
a compaq PII350 mobo. Sometimes the keyboard seems to get lost
in xdm after booting. Generally, a reboot solves it for me.
It only happens very rarely, so it's not really such a big
deal for me...
I can't imagine it would be video-related?!
