Bug#303493: totem: Task-switching to Totem causes system freeze

[Carl Fink]

Package: totem
Version: 0.100-5
Severity: important

Twice, task-switching a minimized Totem window to the foreground (once
using the mouse and icewm's task bar, once with alt-tab) has completely
frozen the system.  The Totem window draws, but without its contents
(once an MP3 visualization, once an AVI file), and the system totally
freezes. Not just the mouse pointer -- I can no longer ping the system
or ssh to its sshd.

There's nothing interesting in the logs.

It's not easily reproducible.

I'd be glad to provide any debugging help I can.
