Ubuntu 11.04 beta2: Freeze while watching a video
Hello,
When I watch a video, sometimes (about every 30 seconds), it just freeze, and play again and again the same last seconds of the video, just like it was a loop. And, when I move the mouse, it just stop doing that and just continue to play the video.
I really think that's a driver problem as I have that problem with with all video player, including vlc. I actually use the "nouveau" driver. I wanted to try with the NVIDIA drivers, but when I install it, the computer just freeze at gdm login. I also tried to install the .run NVIDIA driver, to see if it works with it, but I just didn't succeed on installing it : it says that I have to remove nouveau, which I did.
My graphic chipset is a 9800MGT.
I'm going to try with the generic video drivers, and I'll add the result in comment of that bug.
Thanks
