Hi Gurus,

I am running Solaris 8 on a sparc5 96MB RAM. I have a program reading ttyb
and displaying the result. I keep getting the following error message:

_ttfReadDevice: Exceeded buffer space returning.

This same setup works under solaris 2.6 on sparc 5.

vmstat 5 on the sparc 5 retyun the following:

Is there a way to tell the system to increase the memory buffers?

any help is appreciated.
