Are you perhaps using key release bindings? (Key -F1 ...) It
looks like fvwm has reserved the keyboard for exclusive use and
never releases it. The one prominent cause for this I am aware of
are key release bindings. They simply do not work as advertised
and can block the whole display when something goes wrong.
