(I'm seeing the same with .1.21 and Redhat 9)

This seems to be a conflict with the kprinter app wanting to pop to the front 
with focus and the texmacs menu not giving up the focus.  I haven't looked at 
the source, but probably the menu widget needs to drop focus before it spawns 
the external print process.

The keyboard still works so you can use [Alt][Tab] to move between apps and 
from kprinter you can [Tab] to the print button or just hit [Alt]-p to print 
or [Alt]-c to close kprinter.  After kprinter prints or closes everything 
will be back to normal.
