Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
Hi.
I randomly get some very bad freeze. Most of the time it happen while i watch a video on VLC (normal up-to-date version i got with apt-get).
Suddenly between two frame of the movie, the computer completly freeze. Then when i finally reach tty (ctrl+alt F1) and i type "top":
I see a process, most of the time vlc, the use 100% of the UC and the memory is constantly decreasing. After a while the system kill randomly some process chrome or VLC for instance and return to a normal state.
This kind of memory leak can last for more than 5mn if i really do nothing.

I seem to have the same problem or at least a very similar problem. I did not see this in Ubuntu 9.04. But after I upgrade to 10.04, I started to see it. Here is my symptom.
I use DVDAuthor to create DVD from video clips. When I play it on VLC, I noticed that between two video clips, VLC often freezes for a few seconds, but the progress bar continues to move. So when freeze is done, I have missed a small portion of the video. This freeze is very noticeable if I fast forward x8 speed (You may have to do this when playing DVD that has been copied to disk, x8 is too fast for a DVD disk).
Interesting thing is that this only happens if I play DVD by opening the DVD directory. If I open the individual VTS_01_x.VOB file from within the DVD directory, I do not see the freeze at all.
I have Dell Studio 15
