window doesn't move. If the application itself resizes, such as
offering a full-screen mode, the application responds as expected. But
windows themselves don't respond to me. I've gone into the various
settings available, and I can't see any that would cause this behavior.
Any clues or pointers to where I'd find this in the manual would be
appreciated.

I've experienced a similar bug back on FC1, but never quite figured out
what it was. I think it started after installing the kde-redhat
packages, and I know it worked after switching back to using a KDE
desktop.
If you try logging in using a KDE desktop (or use switchdesk to change
the default to KDE), does it work then?
Do you use kde-redhat? (it might have been something else in my case)

I have a cron job that automatically does an apt-get update, and it's
possible that something in that locked things up. I also noticed that
the window for XMMS did move around, so it must be something busted in
my KDE settings, but tweaking the obvious ones didn't seem to do
anything.<br>
