In the process of back tracing, I installed libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu2). And now the problem seems to be solved.
Sorry for the incorrect bug report. For the record: My graphics card is ATI readon X1950 Pro with CCC driver 8.5 Desktop effects turned off. Also, when I followed the guide for back tracing, I stopped at "sudo apt-get install yelp-dbgsym=2.22.1-0ubuntu2.8.04.1", because this step depends on yelp (=2.22.1-0ubuntu2) but 2.22.1-0ubuntu2.8.04.3 is installed and necessary for a lot of other programs (such as FireFox 3). In other words, you can't really install yelp-dbgsym... ** Description changed: Binary package hint: libgstreamer0.10-0 + + [SEEMS TO BE SOLVED] Ubuntu 8.04.1 libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu2) was automatically marked for upgrade (previous was libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu1)), and after installed, (at least) Totem and VLC simply close when starting a video. You might be able to glimpse one frame. I've tested the YouTube plugin and 3gp file for Totem and 3gp file for VLC. Terminal output is this: totem ** (totem:8768): DEBUG: Init of Python module ** (totem:8768): DEBUG: Registering Python plugin instance: YouTube+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:8768): DEBUG: Creating object of type YouTube+TotemPythonPlugin ** (totem:8768): DEBUG: Creating Python plugin instance The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'. (Details: serial 54 error_code 2 request_code 140 minor_code 19) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) To resolve the problem for now: downgrade libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu2) to libgstreamer0.10-0 (0.10.18-4ubuntu1). -- libgstreamer0.10-0(0.10.18-4ubuntu2) causes move players to close https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
