    I have CentOS 5.1 running as a guest OS under the host Windows XP. I have Parallels Tools installed (I can't remember if this happened before I installed it.)

    Periodically, both the mouse and keyboard stop working inside the guest. They just don't do anything.

    If I ssh into the guest and kill X, they will come back when X restarts.

    Is there some workaround? If I uninstall Tools, will I have better luck? It's nice having them, but maybe I'll use synergy or something instead.
