Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Whenever I try to play a video or music file in VLC, Mplayer, or totem,
the system hangs as soon as it starts to play. The only thing that works
is the mouse. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't work, and sometimes the audio
continues playing. Sometimes the screen will also go black with vertical
columns of horizontal blue bars or the system fans will go on high.
Since the latest intel update (2:2.2.1-1ubuntu13.4) for hardy/8.04, this
has been happening consistently. Disabling compiz seems to fix the
problem, though I can re-enable compiz as soon as the media file begins
playing and there are no problems.
** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
