Hi folks!

Last friday I tried to setup my 386bsd to startup with xdm.
I checked all files in /usr/X386/lib/X11/xdm/* and configured
them to my needs. Everything fine.
Starting up xdm was no problem too, BUT
after a while my xterms keep hanging up in a way I just can 
enter CAPITALS and my mouse is in a rightbuttonpressed state.

I couldn't find any special keycombination to envoke this 
feature/bug. It just happens and *all* xterms (even new ones)
echo only capital letters.

Any clues?
