Comment 0 for bug 249222

When trying to watch videos on Totem (and VLC) the program crashes sporadically when visual effects are enabled. It could be when I maximize, restore, move the mouse while in fullscreen mode, etc. This is what the console displays when in happens:

The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 371 error_code 11 request_code 141 minor_code 19)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
