since my quantal vlc was hosed, i went and installed linux mint 13 xfce. vlc worked great on the liveCD, and worked great after install to hard disc. then i ran apt-get update. after that, maya(precise) vlc is hosed too. not doing padsp, just plain vlc. same problem as above, vlc display freezes. the sound works if i invoke vlc with a stream on the commandline. but the vlc display interface is frozen. other program displays (eg firefox) are fine.
