Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mplayer
I get an error that the Xvideo port is not free and is being used by other
video players when there are no such players running.
I need to logout and re-login to correct this problem.
The following is the command line output of mplayer. It just starts without the
video and runs only the audio
