I haven't run FreeDOS under VirtualBox in a while - I just run Windows there, since I run Linux on my laptop. I installed it this morning to respond to Aitor's email. The last time I ran FreeDOS until VirtualBox for anything serious, I recall that DOS GUI performance was about the same as under VMWare Workstation. It's ok, not that great. Performance will be better for DOS graphics under DOSEmu (if you run Linux) which is what I use for FreeDOS almost all the time. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
