kalarm windows not take keyboard focus and the SYSTEM IS BLOCKED

[gfr]

When I am working with firefox, for example, in foreground, and kalarm send more than one alarm window, two or three... these windows are sent to background, they are not taking the keyboard focus although I have selected this configuration option: "Message windows have a title bar and take keyboard focus".
But, that is not all, when I try to change to one of these kalarm windows pressing her button on taskbar the SYSTEM IS BLOCKED (not keyboard response, cpu applet is stopped...), and I have to power down pushing the power button of my laptop. I think that this is serious.
As I have to power down the system, I don't know how I can pick more information about the problem up. ¿?

Sorry, I am working with hardy and it was upgraded yesterday... the problem continues

[SK (stephantom)]

I am assigning this package to the kdepim source package because kalarm is built from that.

Just now, I have checked that this problem not only happens with kalarm... it happens with other applications that "send windows to background" when the user is working with other application on foreground (full screen) and try to change to the others pressing on their buttons that appears on taskbar. I think now that this problem is from X system. Below, you can see information about my chipset:

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04 using another window manager besides kwin?

Sorry, I have changed my system to Debian GNU/Linux (testing) and I
can not check this issuse now.

Thanks.
