That took some time, because since I switched to xfce, it is a lot more stable. However, after running for a few days it still crashed when trying to play a video. The log is attached. I would have attached a detailed backtrace as well, but unfortunately I forgot to switch the core dump option on when switching from gdm to xdm, so I don't have a core this time. Thanks, Bas
