Hi folks. I just tested the Intrepid RC live-CD on a laptop of mine, and XVideo is plain out of the question. Totem always crashes with the BadAlloc-error. The laptop has an ATI X1400 (R5XX) graphics card in it. I know I can solve it all after installation by going the Catalyst/fglrx-way, but I was really hoping I could use the open source drivers by now. Also, needless to say, this is a rather serious issue, since Compiz is enabled by default, after all ..
I will try changing the acceleration-method to EXA after I've got this Intrepid-thing installed for real. Just hope I won't get the corruption problem.
