I have a longstanding similar problem with my USB KVM*. What
"fixes" it for me is to switch to another virtual console and back -
i.g. <Ctl><Alt<F2>, followed by <Ctl><Alt<F4>, where <Ctl><Alt<F4> is
running X.
I also have problems - which may be related - with the mouse
just suddenly freezing, especially under heavy load. Same fix works.
