Gnome-settings-daemon is receiving two input events in a very short
amount of time from the kernel. The input events are basically fn-F7, or
"change my display output configuration". Unfortunately, these events
are coming in reverse order, so the timestamps go backwards. The input
timestamps are fed to the xserver, which evaluates the first just fine,
and then errors out on the second due to the timestamp warping. What we
need to do is either:

a. Have g-s-d detect warped timestamps and refuse to continue
b. Have g-s-d detect warped timestamps and set a the timestamp to the previous 
+ 1

I'm testing out a. right first since it's the cleaner approach. I don't
think there will be any issues with it, but you never know. I'll test
out b. if a. has issues.
