As I wrote in your RPMFusion bug report, MPlayer shouldn't be able to
crash the Xserver. If it does, it usually means it triggered some bug
in either the Xserver or radeon driver, or perhaps its kernel part.

as i wrote above, since i deactivated desktopeffects (wobbling windows etc - i think
this is compiz) it works.
so it seems to be a bug in compiz or the other way, because the effects (resetting X,
not playing movies) just come with desktopeffects activated.
still my question: am i the only with that error? do others not have this problem? if
no, this could perhaps just be related to compiz on ati radeon.
