[MPlayer-users] 1.0rc1try3 crash (gmplayer)

[Robby Workman]

I've got a relatively recent problem with gmplayer.
I start gmplayer (using the default Blue theme), and right-click
on the window, open a file, and it plays normally.  After that
video finishes (or if I stop it), if I right-click on the window
again, gmplayer crashes.

Here's the result of running it in gdb:

[ws] Error in display.
[ws] Error code: 178 ( RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) )
[ws] Request code: 155
[ws] Minor code: 7
[ws] Modules: (NULL)
Program exited normally.

strace results in this:

open("/usr/share/X11/XErrorDB", O_RDONLY) = 9
fstat64(9, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=37949, ...}) = 0
read(9, "! $Xorg: XErrorDB,v 1.3 2000/08/"..., 37949) = 37949
close(9) = 0
write(2, "[ws] Error in display.\n", 23[ws] Error in display.
) = 23
write(2, "[ws] Error code: 178 ( RenderBa"..., 71[ws] Error code: 178
( RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter) )
) = 71
write(2, "[ws] Request code: 155\n", 24[ws] Request code: 155
) = 24
write(2, "[ws] Minor code: 7\n", 20[ws] Minor code: 7
) = 20
write(2, "[ws] Modules: (NULL)\n", 22[ws] Modules: (NULL)
) = 22
exit_group(0)

This is on Slackware -current (12.0rc2 at the moment), with MPlayer
built using the build script at:
  http://rlworkman.net/slackbuilds/MPlayer/
(which allows MPlayer's configure to determine compiler flags and
such, as recommended by the MPlayer devs).
At this point, I'm not convinced that the problem is necessarily in
the MPlayer code (perhaps X11, although nothing in X11 was changed
in the Slackware -current tree when the problem started appearing),
but I don't really know where else to look right now.  Does anyone
have any ideas for how I would go about diagnosing this?
There are several others who are also having the same problem - see
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=564455 -
and if there's a problem with something in the Slackware tree, I'd
like to know about it ASAP since 12.0 is in RC-state :/

Thanks in advance,
Robby Workman
