From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040930 Epiphany/1.4.3 Description of problem: Using the free nvidia driver it seems the xorg server is not able to handle xvideo images when I set the screen to widescreen resolution. Using a standard resolution this isn't a problem (using the binary nvidia driver with FC2 this also worked). I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop which has a wider than standard screen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: [cschalle@cschalle movies]$ totem gravity.mpg Actual Results: 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 48 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.) Additional info: Below is the xorg.conf lines I changed to cater for the wider screen.

Please report this problem to X.Org by filing a bug report in the X.Org bugzilla located at: http://bugs.freedesktop.org Once you have filed your report at X.Org, please paste the bug URL here, and we will track the issue in the X.Org bug tracker. Thanks in advance.
Ok, commited to xorg bugzilla: https://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1616
Thanks Christian, I've added the upstream bug to our tracker. We'll monitor the issue in the upstream bug, and review any fixes that become available for consideration in future X.Org builds. Setting status to "UPSTREAM" for tracking.
I'm still seeing this problem in FC5, with the "nv" driver on a GeForce 7600GT at 1680x1050x24. There's another upstream bug dealing with this issue: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6151 That ticket also contains a patch (supposedly solving the issue). Could you consider adding it to the xorg FC5 RPMs?
