Mark,

I hit this problem when I finally got vlc 1.1 installed. After a bit of googling I stumbled upon an environment variable LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK.

I added the following to my .gnomerc and it fixed the problem:

LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1
export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK

I'm not sure what the underlying problem is but this is a workaround.

Steve.

I got the update to newer libc warning before but it still worked.

Any ideas?
