I was about to report this. This is a REALLY tricky bug but I now manage to reproduce it within 30 seconds...
1) open totem 2) play a music file (please use the (public domain) Amiga .mod files I will attach below, for some reason, I manage to reproduce the problem more easily with those -- but it also occurs with mp3s) 3) now drag a 2nd music file above the totem window. DO NOT DROP YET ! Just move the mouse cursor very quickly BETWEEN THE VISUALIZATION (goom enabled) AND PLAYLIST panes. Do it for about 15 seconds 4) the file icon may disappear after a few seconds. If it doesn't : play the 2nd file and drag the 1st file (& goto 2 until the problem occurs) 5) once the dragged icon has disappeared : the GUI is completely locked. Actually not completely : - the music is still beiing played - you can still move the mouse cursor but its state is frozen (it can be a "move" "add" or "normal" cursor) - sometimes you can still scroll within the playlist -- as if the mouse cursor was "locked" inside the playlist - nothing else responds and you have to kill the X server ! This is a really weird bug but I managed to trigger it about 15 times in half an hour. Please try with the "mod" music files below. I also attach a gdb backtrace (with the totem symbols installed but maybe more are required ?) -- I started gdb until the text console and exported the display for totem. Please note : I am using the nvidia proprietary drivers. I triggered the bug with both compiz enabled AND disabled. ** Attachment added: "gdb backtrace with totem & gstreamer symbols installed" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/660222/+attachment/1765870/+files/gdb-totem.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660222 Title: Totem freeze when click and drag a folder or folders -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
