I'm having the problem intermittently with Pidgin at the moment, but I am having the problem in some other programs, although not gedit; at the time I filed the bug, I had only noticed it happening in Pidgin because I use that most often. It does happen with with my terminal (I'm currently using the xfce one rather than the gnome one, but I just checked the gnome one and the same thing happens). I can get text input back in any of these by right clicking but obviously something is not working correctly. I'm not having the problem with Firefox or Open Office. I'm still using Hardy, with kernel 2.6.24-21-rt (there was a bug involving serial-usb adapters for which I've been holding back on updating because of). I've got an nvidia XFX Gforce 7600GT graphics card.
