Jeff:

It would be quite difficult to get the details without block dumps as the lock information is kept at the data block level and oracle does not maintain any external record (lock table) for the TX locks. But if the session is waiting for the row, which is already locked by some other user, sometimes that information is visible in V$SESSION (FILE#, BLOCK# and ROW# for ROW_WAITs)
