SHMAT problem; IPC config?

Hello to all,
I am attempting to use programs I compiled with the GNU GCC 2.8.1 package
downloaded from www.sunfreeware.com. The GIMP imaging tool, among others,
indicates during startup that a "shmat" failed. I tried editing the
/etc/system file to increas the amount of available shared ram from 1Mb to 4Mb
and this does not change anything. I am quite sure this is an IPC problem.
Here is the output of ipcs:
IPC status from <running system> as of Fri Aug 20 07:55:33 1999
Message Queue facility not in system.
T ID KEY MODE OWNER GROUP
Shared Memory:
m 0 0x50018b13 --rw-r--r-- root root
m 601 00000000 --rw-rw-rw- cconn staff
m 602 00000000 --rw-rw-rw- cconn staff
m 3003 00000000 --rw-rw-rw- cconn staff
Semaphores:
I wonder what does "Message Queue facility not in system" mean? Does this
indicate that my system does not support it (SS20/64Mb/Solaris 2.6), or do I
need to tweak the config to activate/enable IPC? Or is it simply a GCC
problem (not supported?)
Thanks in advance,
Chris
