Description Peter Brakemeier 2007-02-07 08:22:30 UTC
Version:           1.4.3 (using KDE 3.5.5, Kubuntu (edgy) 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17-10-generic

To regularily set the system clock, I use the following script in a cronjob

#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/ntpdate -t 5 -b -u       ntps1-0.uni-erlangen.de ntps1-0.cs.tu-berlin.de \
                         ntps1-1.cs.tu-berlin.de
/sbin/hwclock --systohc


When my last boot was Windows (which is running on local time), this job will reset the clock by one hour (e.g. from 9am back to 8am). When Amarok is running at that moment, it immediately stops playing and reacting on mouse/keyboard events. After a while, an "Application does not react..."-window
will appear and allow me to stop Amarok.

I noticed that, too.

It's a xinelib issue though, afaik.
