Hello list, I've installed KDE 3.5.4 and Gnome 2.14 on a new GENERIC installation of 6.2-PRERELEASE. Both desktop environments syslog error about exceeding kern.maxfiles limit soon after their started. While with Window Maker and many open apps, and even with Xfce 4.2, I usually have between 200 to 500 kern.openfiles, kern.maxfiles (defaults to 1064) is obviously too low for KDE/Gnome or I'm running into an issue or sth. As I haven't noticed recommendation on kern.maxfiles on project pages nor during installation of the ports, I'd like to ask the community what are the sane recommended numbers ?? Regards, Martin PS: Please CC me as I'm not on the lists.
