Dear Kernel developers!

Lots of things may have changed in 2.4.0-prer., because nor cdrecord
neither postgressql do not run because of system v ipc / shm problem.
After recompiling cdrecord with the new header files, started working.
I'm just recompiling postgres too.

/var/log/postgresql.log:

010102.10:45:09.448 [627] IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (No space left
on device) key=5432010, size=144, permission=700
This type of error is usually caused by an improper
shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration.
For more information, see the FAQ and platform-specific
FAQ's in the source directory pgsql/doc or on our
web site at http://www.postgresql.org.
010102.10:45:09.481 [627] IpcMemoryIdGet: shmget failed (No such file or
directory) key=5432010, size=144, permission=0
010102.10:45:09.481 [627] IpcMemoryAttach: shmat failed (Invalid
argument) id=-2
010102.10:45:09.482 [627] FATAL 1: AttachSLockMemory: could not attach
segment
010105.08:52:27.995 [12675] IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (No space left
on device) key=5432010, size=144, permission=700

cdrecord says the same no space left on device mesg.

Is there any other solution than recompiling programs?
all of the program which need shm/ipc will turn blue?

kernel 2.4.0-prerelease
postgresql 7.0.3-2 postgresql 7.0.3-2
cdrecord 1.9

thx
