GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 335973
Totem 1.4.0 Crashes when Launched
Last modified: 2006-03-27 10:50:05 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. Open up a Terminal Window 2. Type "totem" and Return 3. Stack trace: bash-3.1$ totem ** (totem:2079): WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session bus: Unable to determine the address of the message bus 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 108 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.) bash-3.1$ Other information:
This means that your system doesn't have enough video RAM to use Xv. This usually happens when the video you're trying to watch is very big, or you're using a buggy video driver (NVidia card?)
