What were you doing when the application crashed?
I was changing the clock as it was running a day ahead. I selected to udate the time from the internet and then, when it asked, to install NTP. I've just tried 'sudo su'ing and it's saying the time stamp is in the future - I guess it got confused when I changed the time backwards so couldn't su me.
