I have a similar problem on my x86 laptop with composite, nvidia, and mplayer. I found that when I switch from mplayer from full screen back to windowed with xcompmgr running, it basically freezes X session. If I kill xcompmgr before running mplayer, it works fine (without transparency). -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
