The bugs are:
1) something in packet driver that interferes with the mouse. I can use
one or the other successfully but not both
2) on 64 bit Linux, the CPU internal timer (a 64 bit register, i don't
remeber the name) is not working.
(1) is annoying but (2) is a showstopper for me and I can only use on 32
bit Linux
There are also a few display/keyboard bugs for which I have patches that
I need to apply and compile my owm dosemu.
One is for screen resolution, one is for the / and ? key that exists
only on the brazilian notebook keyboard.
IIRC another is to make NDN work but is not really fixed, just a
work-around that works fine.
I have reported it a lonk time ago but as I am not a regular
contributor, I got no answer
