xine!!!

hello all. does anyoen out there understand what is going wrong when i try to play files in xine?

here is the output for when it craps out...

X Error of failed request: BadGC (invalid GC parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 56 (X_ChangeGC)
Resource id in failed request: 0x82baad8
Serial number of failed request: 41802
Current serial number in output stream: 41803


what's worse is that i can only get xine to get up to that point in root. as a normal user, it doesn't even get that far.

i am lost....
