Ok, here's a weird one.

The LVM machine that I mentioned earilier this week, well, yeah, they gave
me another old box to replace it. So I moved my nic and good drives and scsi
card. I loaded FC1 AND WBEL on this thing. Whenever I went graphical, I'd
loose the mouse and keyboard.

After many hours/days of pulling hair, rebuilding the os, removing modules,
unloading services, I started trying hardware. I removed the SCSI card
(AHA-1520) that I hang a CD tower off and it worked!  I now have graphical
keyboard and mouse!

Any suggestions?  BTW, I'm tossing the card.
