Description of problem:

When I try to run OpenOffice I get the following error messages:

soffice.bin: xcb_io.c:452: _XRead: Assertion `dpy->xcb->reply_data != 0' failed.
soffice.bin: xcb_io.c:182: process_responses: Assertion `((int)
(((dpy->last_request_read)) - ((dpy->request))) <= 0)' failed.
/opt/openoffice.org2.3/program/soffice: line 251:  7805 Aborted                
"$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"

This happens on two machines at work, though our home machines work.

Machine 1:
Fedora 8 with SRSS 3.1.1 and Sun Java - we had to apply certain non-standard
patched in order to make SRSS work, but this doesn't seem to be the problem.

Machine 2:
Standard installation of Fedora 8 with IcedTea Java.

On Machine 1, I tried to install OpenOffice package from openoffice.org, but the
result is the same.

How reproducible:
Always on the two machines

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run swriter (or oowriter) from the command-line
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

Machine 1:
soffice.bin: xcb_io.c:452: _XRead: Assertion `dpy->xcb->reply_data != 0' failed.
soffice.bin: xcb_io.c:182: process_responses: Assertion `((int)
(((dpy->last_request_read)) - ((dpy->request))) <= 0)' failed.
/opt/openoffice.org2.3/program/soffice: line 251:  7805 Aborted                
"$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"

Machine 2:
swriter.bin: xcb_io.c:452: _XRead: Assertion `dpy->xcb->reply_data != 0' failed.
/usr/lib64/openoffice.org/program/soffice: line 147: 29552 Aborted             
   "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"

Expected results:

openoffice launches

Additional info:

I am adding the output of strace.

Comment 3 Hana Skoumalová 2008-01-18 10:52:00 UTC 
I was pointed to another bug, which describes this problem. In fact, it is the
fault of SunRay Server. The simple workaround is:

env SAL_NOOPENGL=true ooffice
