Bug#724944: xserver-xorg-video-intel: segfaults when trying to play movies



Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.21.15-1+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: kills entire session; including applications running on it, which likely results in data loss.

I can reliably crash the X server by starting almost any video with almost any
player.  At least mplayer, xine, totem, and xawtv (showing images from my
webcam) have managed to crash it.  Log file attached.  If you need debugging
symbols or anything like that, let me know how to generate it and I'm happy to
send it.

The only way I have currently found to play video without crashing X, is using
mplayer -vo x11.  I think that disables a lot of hardware acceleration, but I'm
by no means an expert on this topic.

Thanks,
Bas
