Based on the description, the issue is a freeze, not a crash. If it were a crash you could obtain a backtrace (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing). With freezes it's not so easy.
Please attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log. This is required before anyone can begin troubleshooting the bug. X bugs are indicated by filing against package xorg, not by assigning to canonical-xorg. Fixing. To answer comment #7, yes this is likely to be an X driver bug, so reporting the type and version of X drivers is useful. ** Summary changed: - Ubuntu Hardy crashes while launching totem + Ubuntu Hardy X freezes while playing content in totem or vlc ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None => xorg Assignee: canonical-xorg (canonical-xorg) => (unassigned) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- Ubuntu Hardy X freezes while playing content in totem or vlc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/233896 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
