reassign 711477 gstreamer0.10 thanks Hi,
while I'm reassigning this to gstreamer0.10, because it's definitly not a
general bug in Debian, I'd probably maybe rather recommend to close this bug
(in the Debian Bug tracker) as this issue seems to be a "hardware problem"
cause by running as a VMware client....
