Your recommendation works fine till the systems reboots: /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax has again the value 26458112.
I've take a look in powertweak, and I can find two params. about shared memory: - kernel-shmall = 2 - kernel/shmall = 2097152
Both entries sugest that, with some products installed like Oracle, you must raise this values. Do you think I must do it?
For some reason the powertweak package ships with a strange default value for this parameter. You've got two choices: deinstall (or not start) powertweak, or play with that setting so a value of ~32 MB is restored. (33554432 is 0x2000000)

Withdrawall is the last ;-) , so I try to correct it. 'kernel-shmall' rounds decimal values (all I need is 2,5), then I've change it to 3 and now /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax has a value of 39687168 ( about 37,8 MB). Thanks a lot, Pedro
