Re: [Gems-users] SIMICS getting shaky

[Liping Xue <lxue@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Arrvindh and Dan,
  I also meet this problem if I type the wrong  configuration of ruby.
I remember when I try to type "ruby0.setparam g_MEMORY_SIZE_BYTES 
4294967296", I made a typo,
"ruby0.setparam g_MEMRY_SIZE_BYTES 4294967296", it  would show me the 
same error message as yours.
