Have you tried pressing the [ESC] key? Sounds like you somehow got into "Move" mode.
That is what it looked like to me also, not that I could move anyting. In any case, [ESC] had no effect.
I could use cntrl-alt-backspace to kill the session, but that seems too much like giving up. This has happened to me before. I'd like a different solution.
