As Mark Knecht has already pointed out, this is a permission issue. I am using Debian unstable (with udev) and for me it looks like this: ~: ls -lhd /dev/shm/ drwxrwxrwt 3 root root 60 2005-09-28 22:50 /dev/shm/ Eventually installing udev (apt-get install udev) will fix the problem. Or you can simply set the permissions with chmod. Burkhard
