Dear Folks,

F8
all updates applied.
P4 AGP.
$ uname -r
2.6.24.4-64.fc8

after booting this new kernel, I haven't been able to start
PostgreSQL; I get this appearing in /var/lib/pgsql/pgstartup.log:
FATAL:  pre-existing shared memory block (key 5432001, ID 0) is still in use
HINT:  If you're sure there are no old server processes still running,
remove the shared memory block with the command "ipcclean", "ipcrm",
or just delete the file "postmaster.pid".  A reboot didn't help.

However, ipcs doesn't seem to indicate that it is used:
$ ipcs

Any ideas or suggestions to understand this problem better, please?
