right, well you don't even have to edit .xinitrc to do this but you can do xinit /usr/local/bin/xdosemu -- :1 or the following which can be faster if you usually use 24bpp in the main X: xinit /usr/local/bin/xdosemu -- :1 -depth 8 instead. For me this even works in an xterm. Maybe in some situations you'll need to ctrl-alt-f1, log in, and then do this (if you normally use X, that is). Using this command, xdosemu runs in VC 8. "exitemu" even brings me back to my normal X -- nice :-) Bart - 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
