   I am running Madriva 2010.0 on one of my machines (and no I do not have   
   the time to upgrade it). I made the mistake of updating it to the   
   install all of the updates.   
   Now firefox returns with an error message of something like   
   .... libx...: unsatisfied reference to "cairo_surface_get_reference_count"   
   (the dots are what I cannot remember)   
   It however works if I su to root and run firefox from the command line.   
   So it really sounds like a permission problem, but I have no idea   
   where-- all the files in /usr/lib are rx permission for all.   
      
   If I run firefox on that machine with X11 forwarding  from another machine   
    everything works fine.   
   (Ie, I do   
   ssh florid   
   (florid is the name of the problematic machine)   
   firefox   
   so it is running on florid, but displaying on my local machine's X.)   
      
   It is really really annoying when stuff like this happens.   
      
      
      
   texmakerx worked before I did the update but now it says it cannot get a   
   lock   
   QtLockedFile::lock(): fcntl: No locks available   
      
   Again I have no idea what the problem is. Again, it runs fine as root.   
   (But in this case I get the same error from a remote machine)
