I can confirm this bug. In gutsy, when i start watching a video in totem, switch to the console using ctrl-alt-f1 and back then the video is black. Then I closed totem and started it again. The video was still black. After some time the laptop froze, not even sysrq worked. I used xv as video output and "intel" as driver.
