Hi, 

I'm having a problem - or rather, a couple of problems - making dosemu
work properly and having tried everything that I (a dosemu newbie) can
think of I'm asking the list in the hope that someone here will be able
to sort me out :-) 

I've set up dosemu (1.1.1, from bero.org RPMs, on RH7.3) and can make it
all boot properly; the problem is that the Ctrl key doesn't seem to work
(or doesn't get passed to dosemu) so various key sequences that my
applications require can't be done...  I've tried this running dos in
gnome-terminal, xterm and on the console; same thing, so it doesn't seem
like a window mananger is stealing the keystroke or similar: I suspect
it's not a simple dosemu problem, though, because a Linux application
had the same problem in its console version while its X version worked
happily.  I therefore decided that it was worth trying xdos, but
unfortunately that crashes on startup, saying something along the lines
of: 

Running unpriviledged in low feature mode
kernel CPU speed is 448626000 Hz
Running on CPU=586, FPU=1
ERROR: cpu exception in dosemu code outside of VM86()!
trapno: 0x0e  errorcode: 0x00000006  cr2: 0x37abbb9c
eip: 0x08228009  esp: 0xbffff858  eflags: 0x00210206
cs: 0x0023  ds: 0x002b  es: 0x002b  ss: 0x002b
Page fault: write instruction to linear address: 0x37abbb9c
CPU was in user mode
Exception was caused by non-available page
I've tried all sorts of combinations of the keyboard options in
dosemu.conf and keyboard drivers in DOS but to no avail.  Can anybody
please give me a pointer in the right direction? 

Many thanks in advance, 

Simon
