12556	Debian Jessie VB - failed: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXfixes.so.3: undefined symbol: _XEatDataWords	WiseElder		"  I've tried installing both Jessie distribution, and Oracle's distribution but both give the same message
when trying to launch VB. Both give the following message:

   VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen(""/opt/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.so"",) failed: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXfixes.so.3: undefined symbol: _XEatDataWords 

   The VB module builds, and installs...indicating started.

   I also removed, and reinstalled libXext-dev....still get the same error message.

   I tried googling the error message but didn't find any relevant answers.
