To test:

* start RG (version 1.0 or newer)
* go to Settings -> Configure Rosegarden -> Sequencer -> Synchronisation
* change the sequencer timing source option to RTC
* close configuration window, press play. 

It probably doesn't matter whether you have a file
loaded or not. 

Success -> play pointer moves smoothly
Failure -> system locks up solid, reboot required. 

If it does lock up, you may need to edit your 
rosegardenrc to restore the timer setting before 
you can run RG again.
