Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.6.3-2
Severity: grave
Justification: may cause data loss

Installing ntp on my system, and running it for first time made X die.

I suppose there's code somewhere written with the assumption that time always
goes forwards :-).  No idea how to find it though.  The Xorg logs don't
reveal anything.

I suggest you Conflict with ntp as a workaround.  ntpdate is probably ok,
since X is most likely not running when the network is started.
