XFree86-Bigfont extension local-client optimization disabled due to lack of shared memory support in the kernel

Unfortunatly not. I've just tried with 6.8.0 Xnest and remote xterm and had no
crash on client connect.

I wonder if this might be caused by the specific client that I use. Perhaps it is explicitly requesting the SHM extension? This one appears to be disabled in Xnest (but AFAIK is working in XWin). Then again, I just tried the same with xterm, and it still crashes...

I can try with a different color depth later on (can't shut down my regular Xserver at the moment).
