Sure with such a hogthreshold value. Since 1.1.3.8 you don't need to set most of the options manually, so just delete the $_hogthreshold from your dosemu.conf and you're fine.
Wolfenstein 3D: 1.0.2.1, 1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 play with $_sound = (off) . 1.1.3.0 hangs (with or without sound) after displaying the start-up (setup) screen. Control-Alt-PgDn is the only way out. 1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 hang with $_sound = (on) .
Very strange... Wolf is the one of those few progs that used to work with sound even on early dosemus (like 1.0.2.1) and that was my main testcase for the new sound engine and I think I made wolf to sound flawlessly. So I would suspect there are some problems in your dosemu.conf again. Probably XMS/EMS are too low. Try to throw away all the options from your dosemu.conf (except for the most important ones like $_hdimage if you use some non-standard booting methods) because the default options are just fine.
1.1.3.7, 1.1.3.9 play, with $_sound = (on) and soundblaster selected in Duke Nukem Setup.
So you have applied some patches, havent you?
(sounds, no music).
Well, getting sound and music together is currently not always possible. But if you have an SB Live card or some other card with a hardware mixing abilities (and the driver supports this), you can get music working together with sound. sound-usage.txt of 1.1.3.9 describes the ways of doing that (thanks to Rob Komar for the detailed instructions about getting the music to work on ALSA).
however, when I try to select the difficulty level the program hangs.

Too low. Remove that option from dosemu.conf and see if it helps (Duke works perfectly here most of the time) and if not - try this: http://dosemu.sourceforge.net/stas/pic_prot.diff However yes, 100% reliability of DPMI progs is not yet. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
