Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

I'm using Jaunty on a low end system (1.5Ghz, 256MB RAM). Totem crashes
while trying to play DVDs and Xvid encoded AVIs. ffmpeg is not installed
on this system, just basic Ubuntu install with restricted-extras. Other
types of AVI files (like DivX encoded) seem to work fine. I've tried to
play the file in VLC, Totem, MPlayer...VLC and Totem crash while MPlayer
gives sound but no video. If launched from terminal totem exits with the
following output:

/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gdata/tlslite/utils/cryptomath.py:9: 
DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
  import sha
The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 73 error_code 11 request_code 132 minor_code 19)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

I've tried the file on a faster machine and it plays okay. So does in
WinXP on this system. Maybe xvid codec requires further optimization to
run on low spec machines???
