That means shmget failed. The kenel config you provided does
show SYSVIPC enabled, however... You should run the "nv" driver
that came with XFree86 to ensure that you can get the server started
with working MIT-SHM support (ie. a benchmark like "x11perf -shmput500"
succeeds). Not only do NVIDIA's drivers require SHM support, it
is performance critical for other drivers as well.
