 Shared memory id failure: Invalid Argument

    If you see this when the system is trying to fire up the AIPS TV
(XAS) on a Solaris system, then your X11 display does not support more
than the default of 1 Megabyte maximum for shared memory segment. If
your monitor displays 1280x1024 or larger, the sizes of the shared
memory segments XAS wants will exceed a Megabyte. Solution: have your
sysadmin edit /etc/system and put this line somewhere near the end:

        set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=8388608


I am suprised that you do not have truecolor on your solaris machine.

Cheers,

Eric Greisen
