8 First and for all change defaults to noexec,rw , why would you want
9 anyone to be able to execute anything in a volatile fs ?
10 Second /dev/shm is `as far as I know` only added to be compatible with
11 glibc2.2 and above so the POSIX shm_open and shm_unlink can be used, try
12 running
13 touch /dev/shm/foo
14 if this works then nothing is wrong with /dev/shm or any related
15 settings , I think ..
