Just a final note:
Changing shmall did fix the problem. Thanks to everyone for the help.
the final working settings i used are:
kern.sysv.shmmax=4194304
kern.sysv.shmmin=1
kern.sysv.shmmni=32
kern.sysv.shmseg=8
kern.sysv.shmall=4194304
I'm wondering how I managed to get it to work before, without setting shmall.
Thanks again to everyone
Thanks,
Chris

Actually, it seems that you don't get anything back when ipcs is run
as non-root...
