426                                    Usually LS gives you a meaningful error message in case it
427                                    failed to load an instrument. However there might be rare
428                                    cases where LS cannot resolve the reason and you get an
429                                    error message like above. In this case make sure security /
430                                    user limits aren't set too low. You can list your current
431                                    limits with:

435                                    Usually most of those settings are set to "unlimited" on
436                                    most boxes. If this is not the case on yours, make sure that
437                                    at least the limits for "max locked memory", "virtual
438                                    memory" and "data seg size" are sufficiently high enough.
439                                    The exact value depends on the instruments you want to load.
440                                    If your security policy allows it, you could simply set
441                                    those limits to "unlimited" (see also config file
442                                    /etc/security/limits.conf and
