Bug#379480: Mouse and partial keyboard freeze also, but not only on AMD64
Bug #379480 is still partially present.
When I set my system clock back a few minutes, X becomes non-responsive to
mouse click events (I can't open menus or change window focus).
Window manager (openbox) hotkeys I have for opening new xterms or opening
the application menu list don't work after setting the clock back either.
However, I can still type into the xterm I changed system time from, and
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace now kills X (so I could recover easier).
Here's what I have installed
xserver-xorg-core 1.3.0.0.dfsg-3
I'm currently up-to-date with sid/unstable.
I've using a USB keyboard and mouse if that makes any difference.
When I set the clock back, I still experienced bug #403822 as well.
(hitting enter on the "date -s ..." command resulted in several extra
new-lines appearing in my xterm)
