It sounds like you are running in single-window mode without a window
manager.
I suggest adding the -multiwindow switch when starting X, e.g.:
$ startx -- -multiwindow -clipboard
The -multiwindow flag causes each X window to use a separate Windows
window. The -clipboard flag enables copy/paste between X applications
and Windows applications.
Alternatively, you can type "twm &" in the xterm window to start the
twm window manager (it's primitive, but enough to let you move and
resize windows). If mwm is installed, you can use that instead; it's a
bit less primitive
[Don't use both -multiwindow and a window manager.]
Also: some programs will get confused if NumLock is on.
