and then I suddenly realized that you DON'T need to be root to be able to
use the raw keyboard, but dosemu enforced that, in my opinion
unnecessarily.
Here's the patch for dosemu-1.1.3;
for 1.0.2.1:
ignore first chunk
second chunk is for src/base/keyboard/keyb_clients.c
third chunk should apply
note that raw keyboard is linux console only, not eg. ssh, telnet or
xterm. I am also not sure whether this works on every linux kernel and in
all configurations.
