[Bug 587528] Re: vlc crashed with SIGSEGV in exit()

 

There are really not one but two bugs here, one in X and one in VLC.
First Your X server crashed. This triggered the Xlib error handler in
VLC, which is notoriously buggy in VLC 1.0 and earlier, and therefore
VLC crashed too. The good news is, the VLC bug should already be fixed
in VLC 1.1.

The bad news is, because you only have the stack trace for VLC, the X
bug can probably not be investigated.
