Totem error message

['Forum Post]

Well based on the trace, the plugins are installed, detected and found
and this:




Code:
--------------------
    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 87 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.)
--------------------




indicates that either totem or Xorg xserver ran out of memory. There
could be possibily two issues here:



1. You do not have enough RAM.

2. A display driver that you installed (ati-fglrx, nvidia, etc) is
screwed up.



As a last try download this and try playing it.

Unfortunately I am not sure I know how to further debug this issue. 
Hopefully some guru might weigh in.
