Re: [Evolution] Gdk-WARNING **: shmget failed!

Yes, indeedy -- if enough GTK apps are started, or Evo by itself, I get
SHM problems. That's good and bad. Good, because it's not a problem with
Evolution specifically. Bad, because it's a system-wide problem with
GTK/GDK. What can be done? Is there a setting to increase somewhere?
Imlib settings perhaps?
