Binary package hint: totem

Im using an Acer Aspire One, and found that totem crashes everytime I try to play any file. This started happening after i had my TV connected for the first time.

I have this in my xorg.conf:
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Default Screen"
        Monitor "Configured Monitor"
        Device "Configured Video Device"
        SubSection "Display"
                Virtual 2384 768
        EndSubSection
EndSection

and when the SubSection "Display" part is there, I get this error when trying to play a video in totem:
/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gdata/tlslite/utils/cryptomath.py:9: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
  import sha
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 94 error_code 11 request_code 132 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.)

If I remove the SubSection "Display" part, then everything works again.
