The cure was to delete the .kde directory (or rather rename it and then try restoring the bits like kmail.
With me it was so bad that I could not even switch sessions back to the console. The mouse worked, but from within KDE the keyboard was entirely useless. On KDM it worked, and at that stage I could switch to the console and the keyboard was fine there. If anyone can tell me which .kde files might be relevant, I have the ones that failed and can send them to whoever might be able to make sense of them.
