Hi,

How does one enable shared memory support under the current development
kernels? (I'm using 2.3.99-pre1, I have 2.3.99-pre2 it doesnt seem to compile
correctly). Here's what i've tried so far: In 'make menuconfig', i said Yes to
Sys V IPC, then I added the following entry to /etc/fstab:  
none     /var/shm    shm   defaults  0 0 (I created the mount point /var/shm).
However, GIMP still isn't able to use shm and runs awfully slowly as a result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[P.S: Just in case anyone's interested: With the latest kernel versions
(2.3.51+), USB support has improved vastly. Especially, a lot of issues with the
complex UHCI driver have been resolved, and thus several devices (including my
HP 4100C scanner) are finally working superbly under Linux!]
