Can't turn alarm off
 
Every morning when my alarm goes off the screen is totally unresponsive and I am unable to turn the alarm off. I have to pull the battery out. If I have the screen lock activated I can turn the alarm off but the unlock screen which appears next is totally unresponsive. Wondering if anyone else was having a similar issue?

There is also a bug filed on this issue. Apparently the problem is in the RSS-applet which tries to exit offline mode and blocks the alarm window with its own dialog.

Workaround: Disable automatic update of RSS-Feeds.

Turning off auto-update on the RSS feeder did indeed fixed it, thanks again!
