Hi,

We are trying to get AIPS running in the Radio Astronomy Lab at the  
University of Calgary.  The installation works however we still have  
an issue with getting the TV to work.

We followed the steps found on the help page and changed the /etc/ 
sysctl.conf file to have

sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmax=16777216

for the 30 inch display on a MAC G5 running Leopard.  However, we have  
two 30 inch monitors.  To make the TV work we unplugged one monitor.   
Is there something better for us to do so we don't have to keep  
unplugging the monitor when we run AIPS?

Thanks,
Julie Grant
