Technical Details

This problem occurs due to a bug in Java Xcb.

Resolution / Workaround

1. Run the installation script  with '-i silent' parameter to install the product in silent mode. For example:

2. To be able to run Zend Studio, edit the libmawt.so file to avoid triggering the problematic code:

cd /usr/local/Zend/ZendStudio-5.5.0/jre/lib/i386/xawt

cp libmawt.so libmawt.so.bak && sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' libmawt.so
