To see if it's the gremlins or if I'd goofed on the installation, I went back over the installation instructions in Eric's email and compared them to the ones on your website. Whereas the instructions on your website say to *add* X4_MODULE_02 = vnc, the instructions in Eric's email say to change X4_MODULE_01 = glx to X4_MODULE_01 = vnc. I added in the X4_MODULE_02 line and, voila! -  Broadcast no longer has a keyboard input problem.

The problem of random loss of keyboard input is still present in Control mode - so the gremlins are still there!
