Hi
I know I should have payed a little more attention as I remember this 
topic mentioned before but here is what the problem is:
when trying to build the kdebase from pkgsrc I get the error :
> In file included from root.h:8,
>                  from kfmgui.cpp:28:
> /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h:3137: virtual memory exhausted
> *** Error code 1
albeit systat swap shows only 68595 512k-blocks in use, less then 30% of 
the total swap space of 80 + 64 MB.
So I increased the MAXDSIZ to (256*1024*1024) in vmparam.h and cranked 
out a new Kernel but that didn't help. Am I understanding the 
errormessage wrong, or is the system really only using part of its 
virtual memory (well of the swap-space available) or do I have to change 
something else for it to work.
The whole kernel is of the current sources (suped last night), running on 
a Q700 with 20MB-Ram
Thanks for the help
Henning
