Did you try to resolve the audio problem first? Trying to get assistance
on VLC, running on old and crusty, may prove to be more difficult. I
jabbed f (fullscreen) on Xine, a few days ago, (running KDE desktop on
top of Ubuntu) and it folded like a house of cards. I re-ran it, no
prob. Hasn't happened since, so I just pay it no mind. 

Did you try to install Ubuntu 10.4 or Kubuntu 10.4?? Kubuntu has it's
share of problems with audio, since they decided not to support pulse
for the LTS version. Duh. So, I install Ubuntu, get the audio working,
then installed the KDE desktop. YMMV, Ric
