Input Problem in KDE especially Konqueror

Everything works fine in Konqueror(text input, browsing, etc.), but all
of a sudden,I am unable to input any text into any of the fields, and
sometimes YaST also suffers from the same problem.

Has anyone else ever encountered that -annoying- input problem in KDE
in openSUSE?

I am using openSUSE 11.1.

does this problem appear for example in openOffice or somewhere else
too?

see if your keyboard is set in correctly.

STS301, This problem does not occur in Firefox, but it most frequently
occurs in Konqueror. It occasionally occurs in OpenOffice and in Opera.
How do I know if my keyboard is set properly?
By the way, can you explain the picture in your avatar? Thank you for
responding to my predicament.

I mean if it is set in correctly in your computer (the cable)

This is a handball with a tux combination (from tux factory)

STS301, I am utilizing a laptop computer, but it this problem occurred
on my desktop installation as well.

Similar to a ’ problem’
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=586162) on Ubuntu, I also have
SCIM installed, but this problem has occurred before I even knew about
SCIM. It sometimes occurs in YaST, but it always occurs in KDE
applications. The most annoying thing is that I have to restart the
application to regain input.

try to go YaST → Hardware → Keyboard → and see if the settings are
right, but I think it is a software problem in openSuse.

try to google and maybe you find there a solution.

Thank you for responding STS301. I primarily think the problem rests
with KDE, because when installing KUbuntu 2 years ago, the KDE Control
Center application was unable to receive any keyboard input.

I really do envy your avatar!
