Description:


vlc does not start

i get the following error message

foo bar %0> vlc
VLC media player 0.8.6d Janus
The program '.' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 198 error_code 11 request_code 145 minor_code 5)
(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.)


Additional info:
* package version(s)
vlc 0.8.6d-1
xorg-server 1.4.0.90-4
xorg 11R7.0-1

Steps to reproduce:
happens everytime i try to start vlc
