Hmm.. yes. And the fact that all video player front ends - xine-ui, kmplayer and kaffeine crashed X while exiting. I confess that I did not test with other front ends before filing this bug, but then, I having using kmplayer for a long time (about 18 months) on Sid with fortnightly upgradess now. But kmplayer was running fine a few weeks back - about 5 or 6 weeks back; I do not always view videos on this machine so did not exactly notice when it was causing problems. Also, all Xorg packages are up to date. :( > anyway, what video are you trying to play? Happens with all video formats / files. > also what video hardware is in your PC? Trident.
