Description Bjorn Hansen 2006-12-29 17:01:24 EST 
When running openbox as my window manager, if I adjust my system clock (either via a gui, or using the 'date' command in a terminal) to an earlier time, OpenBox will stop responding to mouse and keyboard events.  I can still move the mouse cursor around, but can not click (or cause windows to change focus via mouseover) or input anything via the keyboard.  The content of windows will continue to update, but as I can no longer intereact with them, I am forced to power cycle my machine.  

adjusting the time forward (eg, the clock reads 12:30 and change it to 12:31) does not cause the loss of responsiveness, however, adjusting it backward (even 5 seconds) does.
