(Cc'ing you offlist, since you posted a few days ago, but please reply 
on-list)

How are you playing the mpeg - i.e., which application are you using to 
view it?

Please try this:
- Open a console window, so you have a command line.  
- Type 'script' <enter>.
- Start the application you use by typing its name on the command line 
and pressing enter.  Play an mpeg with it.
- When the xserver restarts, there will be a file called 'typescript' in 
the directory you ran the script command.  Please post it; it contains 
any messages the application emitted before the restart.
