GraphicVision apps have difficulty with FreeDOS's HIMEM due to
something like resizing small amounts of XMS. I have been having the
same type of problem with GVEdit. It might be fixed in the next
version of EMM386.
Fix what? HIMEM doesn't use VCPI. As far as GVEdit, the problem is in the
program, even with HIMEM's changes to make it happier, it cannot guarantee
-- nor can any other memory manager guarantee -- that GVEdit won't still
demonstrate the bug it contains. It is only less likely to happen.
