Description Christian Schaller 2004-10-13 01:16:29 UTC
Using the free nvidia driver it seems the xorg server is not able to
handle xvideo images when I set the screen to widescreen resolution.
Using a standard resolution this isn't a problem (using the binary
nvidia driver with FC2 this also worked).

I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop which has a wider than standard
screen. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
[cschalle@cschalle movies]$ totem gravity.mpg


Actual Results:  The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 48 error_code 11 request_code 140 minor_code 19)
  (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.)

Below is the xorg.conf lines I changed to cater for the wider screen.

Over a year later and this is still the case. I hope someone could take a look
at this soon.
Comment 2 Erik Andren 2006-05-05 02:59:10 UTC
Are you experiencing the same issue with other movie playing softwares?
Comment 3 Erik Andren 2006-05-23 07:09:11 UTC
Ping!
Comment 4 Christian Schaller 2006-05-25 04:31:08 UTC
I am unable to reproduce now, but I think I got it with all video playback
applications way back then :) Anyway, I guess the bug is fixed now someplace or
the other. Closing as fixed :)
