zsnes: xcb_io.c:515: _XReply: Assertion `!dpy->xcb->reply_data' failed.
Abortado

it was working fine until yesterday, i've been searching about xcb_io.c but sadly i haven't found anything useful.

Edit:
it seems i can run it fine as sudo but not as a regular user

Edit2:
well it seems that there was something wrong with my .zsnes folder, i deleted it (well first i made a backup of it) and i can run zsnes again.

Edit3:
well, it seems i got a problem with opengl and my catalyst driver (but i'm guessing because i haven't tried with radeon) because i can use it without opengl but as soon as i change the video option to use opengl it crashes with the same error (zsnes: xcb_io.c:515: _XReply: Assertion `!dpy->xcb->reply_data' failed.) should i file a bug report or something???
