  If you're using a display manager, this is usually due to a race
  condition which causes the X server and display manager not to use the
  same VT. Display managers usually work around this by passing vtX
  explicitly on the X server command line.
 
 I was using kdm 4:3.3.2-1.  The problem seems to have disappeared 
 (4 days so far) after switching to gdm 2.8.0.6-2.
 
 Shall I file a bug against kdm?

I'm reassigning this one.

I've experienced this one lately and it was something related to kde 
accesibility. Try deleting ~/.kde/share/config/kaccessrc and check if that 
helps.

That doesn't make sense. The keyboard is already non-functional before 
entering a login/password.

Ok, sorry, I didn't read the bug that thoroughly.
