Why system was completely freezed, but I'm not sure which software is
responsible for that...

Ok, I've download dad20060401.ogg from : 

http://www.archive.org/download/HampshireLinuxUserGroupDADDesktopAdaptedforDAD/dad20060401.ogg

Note that I have found that vlc freeze only if the tab for
http://files.macbidouille.com/news/200701/iPhone_H264.mov is still
opened in iceweasel.

open the video in iceweasel, close the tab, vlc works.

open iPhone_H264.mov in iceweasel, do not close the tab, 
vlc iPhone_H262.mov freeze the system.

open iPhone_H264.mov in iceweasel, do not close the tab,
vlc dad20060401.ogg freeze the system.

That's why I had previously set the severity to critical.

Maybe this bug should be reassign to xserver-xorg-video-nv?
