Can't validate my Twitter account

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.I can't log in to my twitter account. I run hotot and theres no account 
saved. it ask me again for the validation process when y paste the pin code, 
nothing happens

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to login to my twitter account, but when i complete the validation 
process it froze the interface (in fact, when i input the pin code and press 
ok, nothing else happens)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system and
what Desktop Environment?
Hotot 0.9.6 (Ada) updated Ubuntu 10.10 

Please provide any additional information below.

I can gain the access-token and when I paste it in hotot and click "ok" it says 
"Authorizing..." at the top, but nothing happens.

Same here on Arch Linux.
I tried to reinstall and recreating the profiles but nothing happens.

Tried it again, and now it works. Didn't change anything - at least my issue 
seemed to be at twitters side.

humm, i try to validate (frist time with hotot in Arch) and I cant, the browser 
(FF4) is never opened with the link to gain access.

Then just copy and paste it manually? Looks like your default-browser setting 
isn't working

That's four twitter clients that don't work as promised or at all, today.
Gwibber: crashed twice
Twitux: never worked
gTwitter: No access to enter account info, instructions to use non-existent 
button
Hotot: will not accept my Twitter account, insist I regain an access token

I experienced the same problem. Make sure that your system time is set 
correctly after boot (try ntpd, for example). Twitter won't react to the api 
call if the time doesn't match your region or something, I guess.

Hi everyone. Despite this is no solution at all, I found a succesful way of 
logging in and getting Hotot to work once again, just following a silly 
"blindfold" method:

As I hovered the pointer over the blank window, I discovered that it changed 
shape to text selection, becoming clear that the text box for pasting the PIN 
code still remained below there, as the rest of the buttons also did.

So, I went to google image search and drew on a picture of how should that 
screen exactly look like:

After inserting the code on the box and hitting "OK" button, I could see back 
again my TL and the rest of the views as usual.
