xfce-4.4.1
I am unable to get 'mplayer'to work from within xfce. When attempting
to do so, I am greeted with this error message:
[WS] Shared Memory Extension Error
'gdb' supplied me with little, other than this:
Compiled with runtime CPU detection.
[New Thread 0x87c5000 (LWP 100119)]
(<unknown>:1701): Gdk-WARNING **: shmget failed: error 12 (Cannot
allocate memory)
[ws] shared memory extension error
From the command line, mplayer works fine.
Anyone have any ideas how to proceed with this?
