I'm running 2.0 beta (including XFree86 4.4.0), and I sometimes get a
string of error messages like this:
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 790528, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 118784, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 790528, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 118784, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 122880, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 110592, errno = 12
XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmget() failed, size = 118784, errno = 12
Do I need to change SHMMAXPGS? I'm using the default value.
