XFree86's mouse protocol handling doesn't seem to be able to
handle interruptions/inconsistencies in the protocol stream that
kvm switches cause. As far as I can tell, XFree86 has always had
this problem. Other than switching VTs to force a the server
to reset its state machine, I don't know of another solution.
