Bug Description
When launching the packaged example slideshow the shown screen is black.
The 'top' program says the processor is 88% occupied by the mgp process (and 99.7% altogether).
The command executed and the console output:
$ mgp -o /usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
^C
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
$ apt-cache policy mgp
mgp:
Installed: 1.13a-1
Candidate: 1.13a-1
Version table:
*** 1.13a-1 0
500 http://

Modified input:
When using an mgp file without a single line of text - just two directives:
%page
%back "white"
It renders as a white screen and does not hang out the processor.
I had a similar experience with http:// oops.ghostproto cols.net: 81/acme/ perf/perf. mgp. Screen went black, music started stuttering, hard drive started really working. My screen eventually entered standby mode and I had to restart X from the console.
