When I fullscreen a video in mplayer2 (gl3 vo driver), my display freezes - usually for a number of seconds - after which the fullscreen completes successfully and continues playing. Sometimes the hang is very brief or even unnoticable (I think if I had recently played a video fullscreen - which may make troubleshooting harder). During the hang, CPU appears to be idle, I *think* I/O wait is high (but nothing showed in iotop), and perf top didn't notice anything busy. This does not affect my 5850 card, only the 7950.
Please attach your xorg log and dmesg after the freeze happens. Also, what kernel are you using?
Created attachment 111242 [details] Xorg.1.log
Created attachment 111243 [details] dmesg
Note, I don't see anything related to the freeze in either log.
I can't seem to reproduce this. Does it still happen with glamor from xserver 1.16 or later? What window/compositing manager are you using?

Do I need to restart X to try this? xorg-server 1.16 is not considered stable, and I encountered actual problems with some version post-1.15.1 (sorry, don't remember what) - so I'd rather avoid the upgrade if possible..
(In reply to Luke-Jr from comment #8) > Do I need to restart X to try this? Yes, of course. If you try xserver 1.16.y and the problem persists, please attach the corresponding Xorg log file.
I've not been able to reproduce this since upgrading.
