Xine finds X server short of resources

[Jonathan Ryshpan <jonrysh pacbell net>]

Trying to play a video (as shown below), gxine reports the appended
error message.  It's clear that the X server is short of some kind of
resource, since the video can be got to play by killing all the windows
on my system, except KDE itself and a single console.

Does anyone know what resource the X server is lacking, or how to find
out?  How can I grant the server the needed resources?

Thanks - jon

The program 'gxine' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.

  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
