Hi,

I compiled wine20050419 under slackware 10.1 via tools/wineinstall.

After starting a xterm window on a remote X11 terminal (via properly 
initialized DISPLAY environment variable) I tried to start several wine 
progs (wcmd, winefile ...) and Windows applications (wine c:\\...) but 
each time I get

X Error of failed request:  BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)
   Major opcode of failed request:  144 (MIT-SHM)
   Minor opcode of failed request:  2 (X_ShmDetach)
   Segment id in failed request:  0x2400017
   Serial number of failed request:  2058
   Current serial number in output stream:  2090

If I correctly understand this error message the issue is related to the 
MIT shared memory extension which indeed is only supported by a local 
running X server (am I correct?). I tried to use available resources 
(google ..) but found nothing.

What I have to do?

Thanks for your time and support.

Michael
