- Everything is up to date, I ran pacman -Syu right after the first time I saw the error.
- Using openjdk7
- Black screen after login.

- Downloaded recent liblwjgl.so
- Copied both the x64 and the x86 liblwjgl.so to my /usr/lib and /usr/lib32
- Linked liblwjg.so to /usr/lib liblwjgl64.so
- New Error:

- Downloaded Latest Files for the Natives and unzip. Lightweight Java Game Library

# Install wget if you don't already have it.
~ > sudo pacman -S wget
~ > wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/java-game-lib/files/latest/download
~ > unzip lwjgl-*version*.zip

- List natives in .txt file to know which to create system links for.

~ > ls ~/.minecraft/bin/natives > nativeslist.txt 
~> less nativeslist.txt

- Copy files in lwjgl-*version* directory into the appropriate /usr/lib directories [I have a 64 bit architexture.]

~ > cd lwjgl-2.8.5/native/linux
linux > sudo cp *64.so /usr/lib
linux  > sudo cp [every other none 64 *.so file] /usr/lib/32

- Remove the files in minecraft natives and replace them with system links to the x64 or x86 files. [Refer to the list we created in the home folder if you don't remember them, or just update minecraft if you skipped that step, no biggie].

 linux > cd ~/.minecraft/bin/natives; rm *
natives > ln -s /usr/lib/*file* 
# If you have x64 make sure to remove the *64* part of the link so that it reads it without complaining.
# Example:
# mv liblwjgl64.so liblwjgl.so

- Replace jar files in ~/.minecraft/bin with the up-to-date ones

natives > cd ..
bin > rm jinput.jar # And then the rest except for minecraft.jar and including the lwjgl_util.jar
bin > cp ~/lwjgl-2.8.5/jar/* .

- Open Minecraft and enjoy!

Thanks very much, this worked for me too, although my libs directories were different (I had /usr/lib, /usr/lib64 and /usr/lib32).

Report this to mojang, this will only get worse.

You can also look at this, http://forums.funtoo.org/viewtopic.php?pid=9248. I used it for my kids computers and it's working.

Peculiar, i use the default lwjgl (coming with minecraft) and openjdk7, and i have no issues running it - what is it that happens here?
