Hi there,
I've been struggling with this all the weekend until I found the cause (I haven't been able to solve it though).
The thing is: if you have a custom icon theme (I was using the nice FlatWoken theme) then vmplayer will segfault with no evidence pointing to the icons!
I tried strace -ttT vmplayer and I got a misguided intel that looked like it had to do with libasound or other ALSA problems. Nothing related to the real problem!
After lots of testing, reinstalling libraries and headbanging I decided to switch back to the Humanity icon set and voila! vmplayer was running again.
I still would like to use my custom icons theme, though, so does anybody have an idea on how to solve this?
Thanks!
-Iván.
