[SOLVED] libXi.so.6: undefined symbol: XESetWireToEventCookie error (-current)

slackd · 03-03-2010, 03:41 AM

I just installed the latest updates from Slackware-Current, The update went fine, did a reboot, installed the nvidia driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.08-pkg2), started X successfully.

Now, whenever i open an X dependent application it gives me the following error:

Quote:

symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libXi.so.6: undefined symbol: XESetWireToEventCookie

I am running a Multilib setup, i have the latest toolchains from AlienBob installed.

the ldd output goes like this:

Code:

Hi Everyone,

I solved the problem guys, it was my fault..was missing an important package, it was downloaded in a different directory on my hard drive via my download manager therefore i skipped it by mistake.

libX11-1.3.3-x86_64-1.txz

Thanks,
Sam
