I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and set the framebuffer option to
NO. Now the output of egrep '^\((EE|WW)\)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't
contain any error message. But totem continues with its black screen...

I have totem-xine installed

this library doesn't exist... even in debian-multimedia.org

I installed w32codec and totem continues to refuse to show any video
output with *.wmv clips...
About a month ago, I installed etch in a sony-vaio laptop. Totem ran
fine out of the box, without any codec installed by me... is the
totem-xine version, the same as in the desktop with problems. The laptop
has a ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 video card, so, runs the same driver from
x.org as the desktop...
I will continue to look for a solution... may be installing another
program
Thank you very much for your kind help
with the best regards
