Project: PLD 2.x (Ac)

  Reported by: Patryk Zawadzki (patrys)
      Package: X11
      Version: 6.8.1-5
      Summary: Input not carried over to X session
  
  On some machines (at boot time) input is not carried to the newly
open X session. Result is that the login manager or user session is
starting but the keyboard does not seem to respond. The truth is that
all user input goes to the last active TTY (at boot time it's tty1).

Temporary workaround: in GDM, choose "System" / "XDMCP chooser",
then hit cancel. As the X session is restarted, X11 takes over keyboard
input properly.

Possible cause of this error: wrong order of daemons at boot time
(something takes over user input after X is started but before the
terminals switch).
