If you have an alps or synaptics touchpad/pointing stick combo, you can disable the touchpad part of things in both Xorg and Xvesa

I can't disable it completely since I need it for browsing. The access keys feature in Arora would solve this but it seems to be disabled. I can't get it to work.

Funnily, everything seems to run better with vesa... :-\
Maybe I'm just imagining things.

lol, I had a similar feeling when same symptom first time occurred to me with jwm(-snapshot) and Xorg. Restarting the wm seems to be a quick fix  though ;)
So far couldn't pinpoint what is triggering it...   ???

curaga:
Whatever caused this bug seems to be gone in 7.5.

Is there any known way to update/replace Xorg from 7.4 to 7.5 for TC 2.x ?  ???

UPDATE:
This bug appears not to be exclusive to the Alt key, but more generally to wm key bindings.

e.g.: I have added '<Key key="F12">root:1</Key>' to ~/.jwmrc-keys, in order to get the
root menu with a single keystroke. Whenever Alt+X key bindings would cease to function,
same happens to F12.
