Description of problem:

When I try to start java swing applications, it fails with the following error
message.

java: xcb_xlib.c:52: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libX11-1.1.3-4.fc8

Please not that this problem was reported against FC7 as well, and people were
able working around by using old version of X11 library.

I solved this problem in fedora 7 x86_64;

download this:
