In fact under linux SHMLBA=getpagesize=4096 so the program run perfectly without any problem. Perhaps the cygwin release of getpagesize should output also SHMLBA ? bertrand -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
