Laggy when viewing youtube video in fullscreen mode
 

Hi debianer!
I installed debian on my new laptop, the lenovo x121e. I have no problem viewing 720p videos using vlc player. Everything is also fine when viewing youtube in window mode, however if I switch to fullscreen mode, it becomes quite laggy. I believe it's not because my hardware capability.
Here is my lsb_release:

Try downloading the video file and playing it using a native player such
as mplayer.
