Public bug reported: Binary package hint: totem
My system completely freezes when totem plays a file. Steps to reproduce: 1. Type Alt-F2 2. enter totem '/usr/share/example-content/ubuntu Sax.ogg' 3. click run A second or two of sound output is heard and then the system freezes. Note the crash will also occur when initiating file playback with any other method (such as double-clicking in nautilus, or open from within totem). I have tried other ogg files with the same result but have not tested any other file format. Usually the system just appears frozen and no mouse or keyboard input is recognized. But on a couple occasions the system rebooted and once it shutdown. My system: Dell D620 laptop running edgy and totem 2.16.2 lspci -vv and system trace output to be attached. ** Affects: totem (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- system crashes when totem plays a file https://launchpad.net/bugs/70760 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
