Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
Whenever I switch away from the vty showing a video with Xvideo that app
crashes. If the app is minimised then the playback is uninterrupted.
This behaviour is consistent across all apps that show XVideo output -
vlc, totem, miro. That's why I'm, filing this bug under Xorg.
I'm running karmic on a amd64 machine, xorg version is 1:.4+3ubuntu7 and
the graphics driver is nvidia's 185 series blob.
I did a gdb session with totem. It spawns 7 threads. When I switch to
another virtual terminal an error appears and all threads exit as does
totem with the exit code 01. Here's the error:
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 516 error_code 11 request_code 133 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.)
