Hi,

I tried to make Hobbit run on NetBSD 3.0 for quite some time and always
failed because of:

Could not get sem: No space left on device

To get more semaphores, one has to recompile the kernel of NetBSD with
greater values for semaphores, as for example:

options         SHMMAXPGS=4096
options         SHMSEG=256
options         SEMMNI=256
options         SEMMNS=512
options         SEMMNU=256
options         SEMMAP=256

Details about these settings can be found in "man options".

Hendrik, maybe you can include that bit of information on
http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/known-issues.html

Apart from that issue, looks good and also solves the problem of broken
graphs for me.

Andreas
