Anything else is elf on my system. The SysV shared memory and other IPC resources are limited and persistant, i.e. they do not get de-allocated unless a program specifically requests de-allocation. Your flash plugin installation probably left various SHM segments allocated and you run out of `free' shared segments. Next time this happens, try using `ipcs' to see the allocated resources, and if you're sure that none really needs them use `ipcrm' to delete stale ones. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."
