Package: rdesktop Version: 1.4.1-1.1 Followup-For: Bug #317068 I'm seeing a similar behavior. I connect over a vpn which sometimes drops the connection or silently hangs. I don't think you get any TCP disconnects when this happens. Once in this state, if I go into the rdesktop window (which I believe has always been at a locked desktop screen), it will take the keyboard and mouse but not give them back. The mouse can move out of the window if it's not full screened, but I cannot right click to close the rdesktop window and the keyboard is completely taken. Ssh'ing into the local machine and killing rdesktop restores the keyboard and mouse.
For the rdesktop developers, I'd suggest adding a timeout on waiting for a response from the server. Also, make sure to accept focus changes and changes in and out of full screen mode when the remote system is not responsive.
