You have been subscribed to a public bug: Using fglrx (installed through jockey) on Precise Pangolin crashes to desktop.
Use any video player to open a video file (totem, vlc, smplayer). Expectation: video plays. What happens: screen goes dark, X crashes and you get the login screen. Playing flash video in browser works just fine though.
