I searched the net and also found that potential solution of
raising kernel shm values a few weeks ago, tried that, no difference.
I learned that one from some Solaris guys.  I originally learned to
use BDB 2.7.7 from a different Solaris guy here on this list in
late January/ early February.  He was even more convinced about
2.7.7 than I am.  You might want to read that and see if you
recognize him.  Darned Solaris guys :)


The folks at Enlightenment.org suggest that SCO's 
SHM implementation is buggy.  I was going to try Sawfish
for my next go around in a few days, then toss in Xfree86
and see if I can derive any pattern.
