Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
almost always when i start video (using xv output in mplayer, vlc or totem) screen first changes to black and then video starts normally. also when video ends screen will first change to black and only then show real desktop in rare but quite regular cases it crashes X server completely and i get to terminal. full X log is attached, but last lines are: Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x7e) [0x80c780e] 1: [0xb7ef7420] 2: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//glesx.so [0xb5836e96] 3: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//glesx.so [0xb5835fbe] 4: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//glesx.so [0xb583470a] 5: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//glesx.so [0xb5834d8d] 6: /usr/bin/X [0x80da805] 7: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libextmod.so(XvdiPutImage+0x178) [0xb7b57608] 8: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions//libextmod.so [0xb7b5a476] 9: /usr/bin/X [0x81506ee] 10: /usr/bin/X(Dispatch+0x2cf) [0x808d8df] 11: /usr/bin/X(main+0x48b) [0x807471b] 12: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0xb7c80450] 13: /usr/bin/X(FontFileCompleteXLFD+0x201) [0x8073a91] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11.
