Hi guys. I was able to find the process that was leaking memory thanks to xrestop: it's gtk-window-decorator >From there I found an open bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/740258
Workaround by Lukáš Chmela (lukaschmela) [QUOTE]a workaround is to replace gtk-window- decorator with unity-window-decorator. You can do it simply by pressing ALT+F2 and typing "gconf-editor", then navigating into "/apps/compiz-1/plugins/decor/screen0/options/" and changing the "command" key to "unity-window-decorator --replace". Another way, however, non-persistent, is pressing ALT+F2 and typing directly "unity-window-decorator --replace &". This way, the unity-window decorator would be replaced by the gtk one once Compiz is reloaded meaning that you would need to run this command on every login.

The application closed without an error message, and I have not been able to play files since, although I haven't restarted yet. Totem can open, and I can go through the menus, but it can't play anything, and running it from terminal did not help locate the problem. An example output from Terminal: tim@Tim-Desktop-2:~$ totem The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'. (Details: serial 123 error_code 2 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.) tim@Tim-Desktop-2:~$ totem --sync The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
