They say it's a Fedora problem :)
In fact with Fedora Core 6 I user before, it was running out of the box.

PS: Sorry if I posted the bug in wrong page, I'm just a learning-user of GNU/Linux

Just for future readers information...

I've applied the workaround proposed in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=292581 but still not working.

I fixed the issue installing the libxcb packets listed here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301691 (URL
http://ajax.fedorapeople.org/libxcb/).
