Xlib.lock
From openSUSE
Version: 10.3
Contents |
[edit]
Situation
When running certain JAVA processes (e.g. the IBM Lotus Notes 8 installer, Azureus, Matlab) or beryl, you receive the error: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed.
[edit]
Procedure
The error is caused by a problem in the libxcb package.
[edit]
Easy way
The easy way is just to install the 10.3 online updates, which turn this into a warning. You should install them anyway to get all the security fixes.
[edit]
Hard way
As a workaround you can run the following command from the command line and then re-try your operation (from that same command-line)
export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=true
