[Bug 353397] Re: When watching video, any window over video causes corrupt display and logout

[Bryce Harrington]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop
  
  When watching a video, be it in mplayer, totem or vlc, if a window or
  decoration passes over the video, the computer crashes with a corrupt
  display and forces logout. Sometimes the screen slowly flashes with a
  more and more corrupt display and a hard reboot is necessary.
  
  Sometimes this happens without any video playing, but rarely (it's
  systematic for the video playing problem). Some video files have this
  problem at the same point, regardless of if there is a window over the
  video or not.
  
  I have a new intel g41 mobo, with integrated graphics, intel dual
  processor and amd-64 ubuntu.
  
  I watch a lot of videos, this happens several times a day, it's very
  annoying.
