[Bug 581496] [NEW] Computer freeze for 5mn while watching a video on VLC.

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Hi.
I randomly get some very bad freeze. Most of the time it happen while i watch a video on VLC (normal up-to-date version i got with apt-get).
Suddenly between two frame of the movie, the computer completly freeze. Then when i finally reach tty (ctrl+alt F1) and i type "top":
I see a process, most of the time vlc, the use 100% of the UC and the memory is constantly decreasing. After a while the system kill randomly some process chrome or VLC for instance and return to a normal state.
This kind of memory leak can last for more than 5mn if i really do nothing.
