I tried to find some documentation on the "-F" command, but couldn't.
"-S" appears to mean that it should be silent, so I'm not sure what "-S
4096" does. If anyone could point me towards relevant information, I would
be very happy.

And, while I'm at it, if anyone is kind enough, how exactly do I go about
increasing the shared memory segment on a Linux 2.2 kernel?
