VLC froze twice: so reboot

[Sian Mountbatten <poenikatu@fastmail.co.uk>]

Hello All!

I started to watch a DVD last night with VLC when the screen froze. 
Nothing would work, neither the mouse nor the keyboard. I did a H/W
reset and rebooted the OS and VLC. I set the film to close to where
it froze and went on watching. A few minutes later, the computer froze
again.

This time, after I had done the H/W reset and rebooted the OS, I started
using Kaffeine. No more problems. Then, this morning, I watched another
DVD using Kaffeine and again no problems.

The version of VLC was 2.0.0 with KDE 4.7.2 and kernel
   3.2-7.towo.2-siduction-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT
I am using the siduction distribution which is based on Debian unstable.

Anybody else had freeze problems with VLC?
