The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'

When I want to view a movie I downloaded from planet gnome (http://raphael.slinckx.net/images/nautilus-live.ogg -> 1 Mb), I get this error: scapor@kryptonix:~$ totem nautilus-live.ogg You are trying to decode an theorastream. At the moment, theora is in development. If the stream could not be played back go to http://xine.sourceforge.net and get the latest release of xine. This release will play back streams which have been encoded with libtheora-cvs. 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 96 error_code 11 request_code 140 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.) I use the xine backend, I have 512 Mb RAM. When I first start my TVapp and then open this movie, totem just plays it, I guess it'because my TV is using some graphical buffer so totem uses another kind ?
Which version of XFree86, or X.org are you using? Which distribution are you using?
Xorg 6.8.2.10 on Ubuntu Hoary
This means that video is too big for the amount of video RAM you have available. Reduce the depth or resolution of your display, or force the use of xshm (slow) in ~/.gnome2/totem_config (the video.driver key). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 135045 ***
