The problem is libxcb and libX11 from F8. This also happened with Java:

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6532373

Installing libxcb 1.1 from Fedora development, and setting:

setenv LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK 1

avoids the locking most of the time, but the end of the video is always
lost.

Another possibility is to downgrade libX11 and libX11-devel for:

libX11-1.0.3-8.fc7.i386.rpm

But I can not go further than this. Sorry ...
