This is a problem that seems to come and go as i update my cvs of X and cvs 
of avifile.   Yes, a dangerous combo but one that almost always works.  It 
seems that larger (720x352) or so movies cause X to totally crash and close.  
I'm pretty sure this has something to do with SDL as aviplay doesn't use xv 
yet and tdfx is well known for flipping out due to iffy SDL code.  I'm just 
wondering if anyone else has been having this problem too.  I can view 
smaller size files fine but almost inevitably X will die when opening and 
closing larger size movies.  
this is my glx i'm using in my current X setup that suffers from this problem.

OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Voodoo3 20010501 x86/MMX/3DNow!
OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4.2

This is the current avifile and aviplay i'm using
June 3rd Avifile 0.6.0 cvs.  

This could be just an X problem but then again, i would much rather recompile 
and install a different and working avifile setup than X if i can.
