It seems like later versions of this library are causing problems for the JVM. It seems like a harmless issue, and is supposed to be fixed in the latest version of Java 1.6. We will be moving to 1.6 in one of the future releases, but for now we have to stick with 1.5 for the installers. Don > HP > > libxcb: WARNING!
