keyboard malfunctioning

[Curt]

Hi,
I am having problems with my keyboard working when using XFree86. 
Everything works fine until I run an X application on a remote system, 
namely xloadl. I get the application window, but I can't type in anything. 
The only keys that do anything on the keyboard are the spacebar, the Tab 
key, and the enter key. Is this a problem with my configuration, or with 
the server? Just as a background, I am new to UNIX and I work with Linux a 
little bit.
Thanks,
Curtis Neff
