I'm having a bit of difficulty with Fxtv. I installed it today, and it _used_
to work but now its being a little bit of a pain.

When I run Fxtv, it starts up just fine and pops open a tiny window with the
default TV channel. When I click on the window to go fullscreen, my resolution
changes down to 640x480 (expected) and Fxtv promptly crashes with the following
error:

shmget() failed: Cannot allocate memory

I have SYSVSHM, SYSVSEM, and SYSVMSG compiled into my kernel (4.0-S as of early
today). I'm running XFree86 4.01 (compiled today) and Fxtv 1.02. I'm using
a Hauppauge WinTV model 401.

This only started happening when I started running gnome+sawfish vs. twm. Any
ideas on how I might fix this?

On a seperate note, Fxtv doesn't seem to center itself so when it did go
fullscreen. I'd end up in 640x480 with Fxtv somewhere off to the side. I'd have
to move my mouse around a bit to find it.

Appreciate any assistance =)
