[Bug 416294] Re: VLC crashes if cairo-dock is installed in karmic alpha 4

 

I think this bug is due to Qt !

If the option 'Integrate video in interface' is enabled and if I launch
vlc with this command :

   $ export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && vlc

All is ok ! (I'm on Karmic Alpha 4 with VLC 1.0.1 Goldeneye)

I propose that the videolan team adds a new bug in Qt tracker bug. We have already informed Qt dev on its forum but without any answer... We notes that there is a bug like this one with SMplayer or VirtualBox...
(I wanted to add a new bug on trac.videolan.org but "Trac is down for maintenance.")
