Killing the job takes a long time and rebooting is a much faster alternative) if mplayer is still running before the memory resource is utilized to it's maximum. Expected Results: Mplayer should not increase memory usage in this manner Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040207-r0, 2.6.4-mm1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.4-mm1 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP2400+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.13p1 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=athlon-xp -pipe -funroll-loops" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=athlon-xp -pipe -funroll-loops" DISTDIR="/home/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo http://212.219.247.10/sites/www .ibiblio.org/gentoo http://gentoo.inode.at/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/home/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow X aalib acpi alsa apm arts avi berkdb bonobo cdr crypt cups dedicated directfb dvd encode esd evo fbcon foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 java joystick jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mozilla mpeg ncurses nls odbc oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline samba scanner sdl slang spell sse ssl tcltk tcpd tiff truetype usb video_cards_radeon videos x86 xinerama xml2 xmms xosd xv zlib"
ATI fglrx 3.7.6 drivers i mean....typo :-|
Can you confirm this bug exists in mplayer-1.0_pre4-r4?
Please confirm this. Update version to pre5 or pre4-r7. Re-assigning to myself (maintainer) as I'm not sure why xfree needs assignment.
