Douglas L. Turnbull, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
1) Is this something that started to happen after an update? If so, which specifically? 2) Does this issue happen with all DVDs or only certain ones? 3) After the issue happens, are there any crash files in /var/crash? 4) To see if this is already resolved in your release, could you please test http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advise to the results? ** Tags added: latest-bios-a14 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1718863 Title: VLC malfunction Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: VLC will no longer function.
