Ubuntu系统下打开Atom编辑器时提示Xlib: extension “XInputExtension” missing on display “:5”.的过程, 记录一下. 本文同时适用于Ubuntu 12.04和14.04.

wget https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/download/v1.7.4/atom-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i atom-amd64.deb

$ atom 1.txt
Xlib:  extension "XInputExtension" missing on display ":5".
Xlib:  extension "XInputExtension" missing on display ":5".
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
App load time: 891ms
Xlib:  extension "XInputExtension" missing on display ":5".
Xlib:  extension "XInputExtension" missing on display ":5".

解决办法

在系统里找到libxcb.so.1
sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxcb.so.1 /usr/share/atom/
cd /usr/share/atom
sudo sed -i 's/BIG-REQUESTS/_IG-REQUESTS/' libxcb.so.1

搞定!
