I can't figure out what's causing this problem... mplayer worked fine only
a couple of days ago, but now it's broken...

When I try to play a video file, regardless of whether I'm using cache or
not, it freezes at the spot just after it disables xscreensaver... When
cache is being used, I press ctrl-c, and it unfreezes, and goes into the
video... but then mplayer becomes unresponsive after 1m7s of playing
time -- video locks up, and I have to kill the process.

When I play the video using '-vo null', there is no problem at all, which leads me
to believe that it's only video related.

I can't think of what can be doing this.. I rescently installed udev, and
am having my own problems with that, but I don't think that would be the
problem.
