Public bug reported:
I have lubuntu 11.04. I have had continuous trouble with gnome mplayer
freezing entire computer. It only happens somtimes, but often, and only
when video/film ends; the second video ends it freezes. It happens in
browser (embedded mplayer), both Chromium and Firefox ( with the flash
video replacer adddon). Sometimes entire desktop is frozen, sometimes
the indicator arrow can be moved around, but cannot make anything work.
Keys functions don't work either (like ctrl-alt-w). F keys still work;
F1 logs out, and I can log in to a terminal like black screen, and then
command "sudo reboot".
The freeze problem is quite consistent, even after new clean install
from CD the same problem occurs. I replaced the internal hard drive
recently, and the same issue appeared shortly after lubuntu install. It
is quite and old Packard Bell laptop, but I doubt it is unique.
VLC does not result in freeze, only use of gnome mplayer.
