Here the output (with version 2:2.0.0-3 of the driver): $ totem file.avi 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 72 error_code 11 request_code 141 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.) > > Ok, might be yet another XV problem then. Please try with 2:2.0.0-3, it > got some new XV-relate fixes. > I am afraid it is the same. With x11 output OK. With xv, crash in less than one second.
