Well, I was meaning the DOSEMU built in fossil interface. You could use another fossil driver (like X00 or BNU) that lays on top of the serial port, but the DOSEMU driver should be more compatible under more circumstances since it is dependent on the DOSEMU internal fossil implementation. In my experience, this has been the case, though there are some poorly programmed fossil applications that depend on specific non-features of X00/BNU and the like. -- Ryan Underwood, <nemesis at icequake.net>, icq=10317253 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
