1.6RC5 - tx_rawsock / rx do not support multiple ports anymore?

[careyer]

@rodizio1 : I have just tested the awesome new RC5 and tried to port some of my changes to the latest Version.

However I noticed that invoking tx_rawsock and rx with something else than the Standard Port 0 will result in error messages:

tx_rawsock

tx_rawsock invoked with -p x (where x > 0):

Can you confirm this is a bug? Is there any way to bypass/solve this problem? Best regards! Keep up the excellent work!

P.S: I copied tx_rawsock and rx from RC3 over to RC5 (renaming them tx_rawsock_rc3 and rx_rc3) and changed the according lines in .profile - now it is working again. However I think this is not a permanent solution ;-)

It's not a bug, the shared memory handling has changed, there is now a sharedmem_init which needs to be run first to create the shared mem data.
