I solved the problem!
I had to edit the file /etc/security/limits.conf so it contained the line:

*    -   nofile   2048

This tells the system to set a limit of 2048 to open files for all the users by 
default (check "man limits.conf"). I guessed the double of the default 1024 
would be fine. It has worked for me.
Of course, this is just a workaround; I guess this limit should be changed by 
default in the distro.

Anyway, running:

echo "*                -       nofile          2048" >>
/etc/security/limits.conf

should do the trick.
Regards,

Felipe Morales
