DetailsBoth Totem-xine and totem-gstreamer crash on my 2.25 MB Neomagic 16bit-color PII laptop. Here is what i get:
[user1@vaio Desktop]$ totem The program 'totem' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 67 error_code 11 request_code 141 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.) Please note that if i have xine open beforehand, totem does NOT crash. It seems that xine initializes the overlay stuff for Totem. Also, totem does NOT crash if you open it by clicking on a video or sound file. Totem only crashes when you simply load it from the menus or from a shortcut or the terminal. But if another video app is open, or if you open it in conjuction with a multimedia file, it doesn't crash.

Additional comments about closing: Totem is at version 1.4.3 now, which should have the fix applied.

The reason why it does work when some other app is busy is because your videodriver only allows one application to access XV at the same time, so totem will fallback to X11.
For totem-xine, I don't know how to set these things.

Yes, it's this bug. I found the workaround too just a few minutes ago, just like that guy in the bug report! REMOVING the totem_logo.png fixed my crashing problem. I also created another 1280x1024 PNG file and named it as totem_logo.png and it was only 25KB, but it also crashed Totem.
BUT, if you use one of the small stock icon pngs, you get a gazillion of terminal output with errors, but it DOES work and Totem doesn't crash. Instead of getting these errors though, I just removed the totem_logo.png altogether...
This same bug happens on both gstreamer and xine versions of Totem.
I look forward for the fix! :)
thanks,
