Not right away but some 30-40 minutes into the movie, and not at the same place, but each time I was able to kill it with Ctrl-C at the prompt, or with killall from another shell, when in full screen mode. I don't have to look into it until the weekend, but the first thing I'll try is to disable pulseaudio and run mplayer with plain alsa to see if it still crashes. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
