Package: totem
Version: 0.100-1
Severity: normal


Totem has been crashing on me when loading any media file for the past
few weeks, but only on my laptop.  If I remove the 'snd_intel8x0m'
kernel module, the crash does not happen, and totem works perfectly.  
Other programs like rhythmbox, xmms, etc. seem to be able to operate 
fine even though the 'snd_intel8x0m' module is loaded.  Only totem 
has a problem.

The 'snd_intel8x0m' module appears to be configured to load automatically
via the default testing install using debian-installer RC2, so I believe that 
this will affect a lot of laptop and intel onboard sound users.  Either
totem needs to be modified so that it operates properly under the scenario
that this module is loaded, or debian-installer should not configure
the 'snd_intel8x0m' module to be loaded as a default.

Peace.
