This appears to be a generic problem with X11 emacs, not just on the
Symmetry.  Put the following in your .emacs:

(set-input-mode nil t)

and all will be fine.  BTW, I had to compile emacs on the Symmetry
without -O, apparently because of a bug in c2.  If you still have
problems, check to see if you compiled emacs with optimization.
