Hi Colin,
I cannot confirm this fix immediately because I now use a different
machine (the bug was a show stopper for my business).
However, if mplayer/totem/gstreamer now works ok I suppose the
libreoffice problem would also be fixed.
I very much appreciate your hard work. Keep going Ubuntu!
In addition to in slideshow mode in libreoffice, I confirmed this problem when
playing
high bitrate movies in fullscreen mode (any movie players).
Interestingly, a mp4 movie pasted on a slide in libreoffice that hangs the GPU
doesn't
induce the same problem when it is played on a movie player.
I do not think this is a bug of libreoffice. it is probably a bug in the
kernel or driver
because
1. i do not see this problem on other machines I own including newer
sandybridge and
ivy-bridge desktops/laptops.
2. i tried other version of libreoffice including that from raring and that
dow
Public bug reported:
How to reproduce:
1. open libreoffice -> file -> new -> presentation
2. paste any movie; insert -> movie
this bug is quite reproducible and this movie file can be anything that
libreoffice/gstreamer can play.
3. verify you correctly pasted the movie by selecting the m
