## 7.2. MIT-SHM

OpenBSD supports System V shared memory. If XFree86 detects this support in your kernel, it will support the MIT-SHM extension.

To add support for system V shared memory to your kernel add the lines:

> `

>      # System V-like IPC
>      options         SYSVMSG
>      options         SYSVSEM
>      options         SYSVSHM

> `

to your kernel config file. Then from `/sys/arch/i386/config`, type:

> `

>      # rm -f ../compile/<KERNEL-NAME>/*
>      # config <KERNEL-NAME>
>      # cd ../compile/<KERNEL-NAME>
>      # make depend
>      # make

> `

Then install your new kernel and re-boot:

> `

>      # cp /bsd /obsd
>      # cp bsd /
>      # reboot

> `
