How to fix Xlib warning: Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display? A Google search returns many results but I still can't fix it :(.
I Tried sudo apt-get install libxcb-event0 but it didn't help.

I am using Ubuntu on coLinux on Windows XP.

This is because the libraries support an extension that isn't supported by the X server yet. This message is harmless and can be ignored.
