Getting a weird error trying to start up Tomboy. Here is the output when trying to start it from the command line:

quote:

nick@ubuntu:~$ tomboy
[DEBUG]: NoteManager created with note path "/home/nick/.tomboy".

Unhandled Exception: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The per-user inotify watches limit of 8192 has been reached. If you're experiencing problems with your application, increase that limit in /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches.

I realise it tells me to alter something but I don't know what this actually means, exactly how to do it and what repercussions this might have for the rest of the system or even why I've reached this limit.
