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/).
