is not a temporary solution. this modification implies kernel behaviour changes that can only be done by root and affects all other programs. what if cinelerra did this automatically and the whole system freeze/breack/burn?

a program never can force permanent changes to kernel settings that afects whole system.

Why the developers thought better to suggest a temporary solution
instead of a permanent one? What are the advantages of the temporary one?
What are the benefits of working with limited shared memory?

hi,
to get permanently rid of this error, you have to recompile your kernel.
go to the kernel source directory, in file 'include/linux/shm.h' you will
find, in the beginnig, a line '#define SHMMAX 0x2000000'
change that to 0x7fffffff and then recompile the kernel.

... can somebody tell me of how to get rid of the mistake at starting.
Cinelerra says it is
solved by typing "echo `0x7ffffff` > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax"
I may have limited memory too... sorry but...
...what is the reason for Cinelerra error window suggesting a temporary
only solution?

Thanks
Raffaella
