hi leandro!
Compiling libx11 is not something anyone wants to undertake lightly, it being a huge cornerstone of your entire ditro. If it's your first time with compiling on linux, I'm sorry but I can't recommend you attempt it. First of all try the following: 1.run cinelerra on a 64 bit distro (if possible). I have found these work better (I also use suse 10.3) 2. disable any opengl enhanced desktop effects (compiz etc), also disable any binary nvidia/ati driver for the time being 3. if this doesn't work, run cinelerra from within strace. Run the following from command line - strace cinelerra
4.Also try running it in gdb. Type gdb cinelerra, then run
5. finally (this is well off the wall, but for some inexplicable reason it worked for me on one particular system), install the suse realtime kernel (the package named kernel-rt) then run cinelerra in strace.... weird I know

Hi there!

At the moment I cannot use Cinelerra because the GUI just hangs right
after start. I've googled it and found out it is a XCB issue (a bug
has already been filed).

The solution (or better - the workaround) is compiling libx11 without xcb.

So I need your help: how do I do this? I have the tarballs, so how do
I compile it without xcb? I've never compiled anything in my linux
short life and I have some urgency in using Cinelerra.

I'm using openSuse 10.3.

Thanks.

P.S.: has someone else got around this issue?
