Description of problem: LibX11-1.1.5 causes the Mathematica Front-End to freeze after finishing its boot sequence. Suspect the origin of the problem is Qt. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.5 Problem fixed by downgrading to 1.1.4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Mathematica 2. Wait 5 sec until the splash screen pops up 3. Actual results: Mathematica freezes, the content of the windows stays blank is another window is carried over it Expected results: Mathematica should work! Additional info: Only Mathematica (the front-end) freezes, not MathKernel (the back-end). I noticed the same thing happening once with qt-octave but did not have the opportunity to try again with qt-octave. Hence the suscpicion that qt is involved, Mathematica using also qt (although it embeddes its own version).
