It happens if the kernel wants to use the configured limits but can't because there is not enough space for that high maxuser. In recent releases I can't find any reason to configure it higher than default. Everything else that sometimes need to be higher can be set individualy. It may be that the added driver triggers the already aimed gun. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de ticso@cicely.de info@cosmo-project.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
