I am not certain exactly how to reproduce it, however I think it has to do with some combination of switching between fullscreen and normal mode and also toggling the display of the controls (I specifically use they shortcut ctrl+h). I am able to do both and have them function as expected right now

Doing a bit of research I was able to find a workaround which works. I found that deleting the ~/.config/totem/state.ini file will then reinitialize totem's state and it should open up all subsequent files properly. This worked for me and I was able to open files and successfully switch between ful

As of today, November 7th, 2008, I have been experiencing this bug for four days now. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 (amd64) and the current kernel (2.6.27-7-generic).

Sorry, I have been unable to get around to this as I have been VERY busy with academic research and I had forgotten about this. I will see if I can find my old conky config file this weekend. I should be able to provide you with what you need soon as I actually have Matt Schneider _

I've stopped using it due to this bug. That was in 7.10, I haven't retried it in 8.04. If you want I can see if I can find my old config file somewhere and give it a shot. All I remember is that it would consume 4gb (or what was free for it to consume) in less than 8 hours. On Sat, May 17, 2008 a

Well I seem to have fixed this issue. I did not build the driver into the kernel. Instead I just went ahead and fired up synaptic and reinstalled every package that was found by searching the name and description for "alsa". I didn't bother uninstalling, just went ahead and reinstalled them. Reboot

That would make sense to me, I have narrowed it down to a CPU issue. Seeing as how 64bit has been out for a LONG time now, well I've had one for over 5 years, I am leaning more towards this being a Core2Quad issue. Do you by chance happen to have a Core2Quad machine? My CPU is a Q6600. On Dec 11,

Newer versions of the .iso should eliminate these issues on some (probably not all) of the machines during the liveCD bootup process. However if there is a fix (I'm assuming its most likely a config file, as opposed to a newer version of a binary), we should be able to port this to current installs

Well it seems to me that the main issue of contention here is the detected settings being incorrect for given hardware. I am wondering how usplash defines things like vertical and horizontal refresh rates and if they are modifiable. Perhaps something along the lines of X's modelines? I'm kinda of
