Hmm - this should work ...
Please try with the XLib target, which cannot suffer from strange
interference with the shm extension ...
Just set GGI_DISPLAY to "xlib" to do this test.
This should BTW also speed up your program quite a bit, especially if you
run it remotely, as xlib will accelerate the boxes.

It is just reporting that it cannot use shared memory, which is correct for
a remote machine, as client and server don't have shared memory, then.
1. Does using xlib help ?
2. What exactly happens ?
If crash: When does the program crash ?
What are the last few lines from the GGI_DEBUG log ?
