A separate /dev/shm is not required, because /dev is already a tmpfs with a maximal size of 50% of RAM. In case that 50% of RAM for the tmpfs is not sufficient because of special requirements of some software, the size can be adopted by adding an /etc/init.d/boot.local line, like: /bin/mount -oremount,size=3g /dev to remount it with the desired size (3GB in this example). I'm resolving this Bug as WONTFIX, because it is not sufficient to just change the /dev/shm/sysconfig path [used for many years] in sysconfig to something else, because it affects also several another packages and may break custom if-up.d/if-down.d scripts. We'll address this issue in a later/next openSUSE version. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
