hello! i need to increase the limit of the available shared mem segments per process. it is limited to 8 ( os/x 10.3.9): sajtgyar:~ atisu$ sysctl kern.sysv.shmseg kern.sysv.shmseg: 8 and it's read-only :( sajtgyar:/Users/atisu root# sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmseg=16 kern.sysv.shmseg: 8 -> 8 so i think the only way to do this is to compile a kernel, which is a trivial process ( thanks to the documentations). the only thing is that i don't know where/how to increase the limit. ( is there a simple way to do this other than modifing the source ?) any help would be appreciated. thanks, attila
