Lines: 12 I compiled the xrn from agate, with the 386BSD patches and it compiled fine but it uses a LOT of virtual memory. Initially I got % xrn xrn: X Toolkit Error: Cannot perform malloc xrn: X Toolkit Error: Cannot perform malloc % so I set unlimited limits and eventually it started up. A ps -avx shows a VSZ value of 12372!!! Is anyone actually using this??
