Generally, I use euGTK for Linux programming, and have never run into 
this problem.  I launch most of my programs from an xterm, because the Kate 
editor opens one automatically.  There may be a bug in Athena that redirects
all kb input to the terminal.  Aside from that, I can't think of any reason
for your symptoms.
