Too many open files in system for gnome

[Diego Restrepo <restrepo inicia es>]

Hi,
After install the latest pre release of gnome 1.4,  my system start to get
unstable when certain number of processes are reached. 

For example: nautilus+powershell+xmms+kmail+emacs+galeon

After this all stop work and the following message appear, e.g when
try xemacs

bash: /usr/bin/xemacs: Too many open files in system

My computer is  a PII, 128M and  Red Hat 6.0.


Any idea of what process is causing the problem?

Thanks in advance
