I've tried several times to download the Linux SETI 4.02 "core" - setiathome_4.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu - after an excruciatingly slow download it tries to fire itself up, and:

2004-08-31 20:16:56 [SETI@home] Finished download of setiathome_4.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu
2004-08-31 20:16:56 [SETI@home] Throughput 4960 bytes/sec
2004-08-31 20:16:58 [SETI@home] Can't create shared mem: -144
2004-08-31 20:16:58 [SETI@home] Unrecoverable error for result 04my04aa.14406.24272.297146.241_2 (Couldn't start the app for this result: error -144)

This is Debian mixed sarge/sid, 2.6.7 kernel.

Diagnosois? Cure?

Thanks!

I saw this on RH linux, but only once (the std client for boinc on linux, 4.0x)... Was crunching just fine for 3-4 Wu's since a restart, got this, and then it started running the next WU just fine.... I thought it was just a bad WU.

Were there more WU's in your cache? Did they crunch?

Hey, Woody,

Well, WTF! I had tried this 4-5-10 times in a row, with the same result (-144), so I gave up, posted this, and shut it down. Just tried it now, after seeing your post, and it worked. Go figure.

Thanks!
