[erich.schubert@mucl.de: critical bug in xfree4: shared memory block?]



Wouldn't it be interesting if every day, the newspaper ran exactly the same
stories, word-for-word?

upon upgrading to the current xfree4 deb's  (from phase2 v5 to phase2 v8)

i got some very massive problems...

here's a line from my x STDERR.

------------------
IMLIB ERROR: SHM can't get SHM Identifier for Shared Pixmap Wrapper
             Falling back on Shared XImages
------------------

"cdrecord" did not run, either - "shmget" reports ENOSPC

It appears like shared memory is blocked by xfree4.

(i'm running the NVidia driver from nvidia, it could be an incompatibility,too)

After quitting X4 it works, so i think it is xfree4 (as there were no other
major updates except kde which i am not running but gnome)

Maybe this is a known bug.

Thanks a lot for your great work in packaging xfree4.

Gruß,  Erich
